Hi there, I’ve been caught on this issue for days and I cannot seem to find a solution. TL;DR my outlook credentials are not actually allowing me to connect and send an email from the specified mailbox.
I’ve established the following workflow as a simple proof of concept to automate an email digest of newly published items on a website (we’ll draw from a few if we can get the flow working and merge them).
I am running into issues with the send email node, and nothing I do seems to get outlook credentials working. I’ve tried the following:
- Enabled app password and used an app password (also used my actual password originally, neither worked)
- Updated our SMTP port to be 587
- Enabled SMTP access for my account
I get a variety of errors. All to do with connecting to the account, despite this being apparently a direct connection on the cloud-based n8n as it logged in using my outlook credentials.
This is stopping us from progressing and has wasted hours for me, and will ultimately prevent n8n from being a useful tool for us if we. can’t get it resolved as most if not all of our use cases involve a “send email” step at some point or another.
Can anyone help in terms of what I might need to change, update or consider to get this working?
