If you have Gmail configured as your SMTP mail server, you may need to change some settings on your Gmail account.

1. Enable "less secure" apps. For more information, see this Google documentation on Less secure apps & your Google Account

2. Unlock your Gmail account:

While you may be able to access your Gmail account, chances are it has been locked for use by third-party apps (in this case, Jira) due to excessive logins. See this Google documentation on unlocking a Gmail account: DisplayUnlockCaptcha

Try using a simple script to test that the configuration is set up correctly and that sendEmail() works as expected.

Example sendEmail() code

sendEmail("first.last@example.com", "subject", "body");

null sender

If this does not work, the first thing to check is that the mail configuration is set up correctly. Check that the "Send mail via" option has a "sender" option selected. See this screenshot from the documentation:Image Removed

...

The most common error in configuration is that "Null sender" (the default option) is selected. It is suggested to use the "Container sender" as this uses the least amount of system resources. For more information, see this Power Scripts documentation on mail configuration.
