- Your account is through work, school, or other organization.
- You turned on Advanced Protection.
- At the bottom of the page, select "App passwords" and choose the app you using Select device and choose the device you’re using Generate. If you can't find it, here is a link: https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords

- Tap Done.
Use the generated app password to create/update the credential for Inbound Configuration in PROCESIO (in step 2).
