How to give Microsoft access to google account

Question

I use OUTLOOK to access my GMAIL account. This has stopped working because my Google Accoiutb has not given access to Microsoft Apps. I can't find out how to give access from within my google account.

Hello. Could you let me know what exact error message Outlook shows when it tries to connect to your Gmail account?

You can also try this:

1. Close Outlook
2. Go to https://myaccount.google.com/security
3. Open “Third-party apps with access”
4. Look for “Microsoft apps & services” and remove it
5. Open Outlook again and add your Gmail account back
