How do I check the oauth status of my connection to Google? I’ve had an email from Google Workspace to say…

Starting September 30, 2024, Google Workspace accounts will only allow access to apps using OAuth. Password-based access (with the exception of App Passwords) will no longer be supported.

I don’t really understand this in the context of the Zaps I have set up for Gmail, Google Calendar and Drive, but where should I be checking the setup for Zapier to ensure I don’t fall foul to this new rule?

I have read this Zapier help page, which I think says the connection with Google is OAuth v2, but I’m not confident I’m reading it correctly! And I can’t even see the Authentication tab it talks about in visual builder. Would be very grateful for clarification. Thanks!

Hi @chellem 

Zap app connections can be checked and tested here: https://zapier.com/app/connections

Hi Troy, thanks for the response. How do I know that they’re oath there though please? Thanks!

The app connection type is not indicated.

When in doubt, re/connect the app account to Zapier.
