ninjatrader email alerts setup/google settings/less secure apps no longer supported.

Hi,
I can't send an email alert using the share services. Your video says allow less secure apps must be enabled in Google gmail accounts. Google says"allow less secure apps" no longer supported as of May 30 2022. Please advise?

Hello trader3000a,

Thank you very much for your post.

Please use Google's "App Password" feature to continue using the share service within NinjaTrader. This can be enabled after Google's 2-Factor-Authentication is set up and would give NinjaTrader a unique password it can use to send emails on your behalf.

I have recorded a video last year that walks you through all steps of the setup process, you may find this video below:

Part 1 - Setting Google up: https://www.screencast.com/t/OJUhZyblD
Part 2 - Setting NinjaTrader up: https://www.screencast.com/t/9xeFhUFdsd

Please let me know if you still experience any issues after following these steps!
