Here’s my procedure… the issue is that gsuite wants a captcha which suitecrm can obviously not fill in, here’s a work around that works for me…

Prerequisites:

  1. You must have and SSL installed on your installation.

  2. Login to gmail, got to settings, ON the Accounts and Import Tab, go to “Other Google Account Settings”. Go to Security and disable the following: 2-step Verification and then Turn “Less Secure App Access” to ON. (if you are using gsuite, you may have to ask your administrator to do this for you).

  3. After you have entered all the connection info and immediately before trying to select the trash folder in SuiteCRM gmail setup dialogue, (you must be logged into gmail in another browser window)go to this URL to disable CAPTCHA temporarily. As SuiteCRM will not be able to process the CAPTCHA. https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha
