In send SMTP for gmail account, can I know how to create email and password , either as variables or arguments?
Thanks.
@sushmithaelluru
In send SMTP Mail Messages Activity you can directly set your Email and password in the property panel.
You can even send your Email and password as a variable and even as an argument too.
Let me know if you have any clarifications or queries.
Yes @abhyudai_munna, should I keep password as securestring data type or simply string?
@sushmithaelluru you can use Get password activity it will store your password in encrypted format using datatype string
@sushmithaelluru
Simple String will only work here.
If you want to securely pass the password, you can use get credentials Activity which will return a secure string and then convert it to a String and pass it to SMTP Activity.
Ya @indra, Can I use separate activity, for password to send email ?
Ok @abhyudai_munna, but if I keep value to the password with string data type, it is showing that
“Compile error encountered processing expression”.
yes you can use and pass variable in password property
@sushmithaelluru
