Send using GMail /GSuite API (not SMTP)

xetra21 19 Sep, 2019
Is it possible to send Chronooform form data using the Gmail API function rather than standard SMTP?

Site currently uses Wordpress but am moving it over to Joomla. However, we can't use standard SMTP because GoDaddy doesn't allow reference to external SMTP servers , and their own don't use security or authentication protocols (who knows why they'd do this).

This wouldn't be so bad but we use GSuite as our mail server and that's been tied down to only allow email from Authenticated sources, so any mail through GoDaddy simply gets binned by the mail server.

Hence, we've used the Gmail/Suite mailer API with Client ID, Client Secret and Authorized Redirect URL and that all works fine with WP Mail SMTP inside Wordpress so I'm wondering whether this is possible to use with Chronoforms.

Hi extra21,

I've no personal experience but if the custom code worked in Wordpress then you should be able to do more or less the same on Joomla.
