# Email Results File via Gmail

# Use Case

Especially for long automation you may want to have an email sent once the automation if finished and you may also want to receive or send the results file to a specific email address, be it yours or your client address. For this use case you can use our SMTP/Email feature that is available in the project settings.

# Enable SMTP/Email in project settings

See below how to enable this feature in the project settings:
1: Go to INTEGRATIONS > SMTP/EMAIL 2: Check the box for Enable SMTP/Email|
3: Enter receiving email for the result file 4: Enter your Gmail address as sender & user
5: Keep default setting smtp.gmail.com 6: Keep default port 587
7: Edit file format & file name if needed 9: Edit your subject and email content
**Point 8 is IMPORTANT and specific:** This is not your Gmail password but a new featured added by Gmail which is called an App Password. You need to enable 2 factor authentication on your Google account and then generate your App Password and enter it in Point 8 input field.
See here on how to generate your [**Gmail App Password**](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en)
