This is similar to the process of enabling Two-Step Authentication for accounts. Outlook 2016, Outlook 2019 and Outlook for Office 365 offer native support for OAuth and 2-Step Verification for Gmail accounts.įor Outlook 2016 (msi, Volume License), Outlook 2013 and previous versions, you’ll need to use an App-Specific Password which you can create on the Google Account website.
How do I best approach this and what changes do I need to make in Outlook to keep receiving my emails? With Google moving away from Basic Authentication and recommending to use OAuth instead, I want to enable 2-Step Verification for my Google account to increase security.
