How to set up Gmail automation for a client , when and how to use their email in OAuth?

I’m setting up a Gmail automation for a client using n8n (self hosting), and I have a few questions about the OAuth setup process:

  1. At what point during the Gmail credential setup do I input the client’s Gmail address?
  2. Do I need to manually copy the OAuth redirect URL and send it to the client, so they can authorize access on their end?

Would appreciate any clarity on the right process for this when working with someone else’s Gmail account.

Thanks!
