Gmail app password

Your Gmail app password

Takes about three minutes. You do it once.

  1. Open your Google account

    On your phone or this computer, go to myaccount.google.com and sign in with your work email (the one ending in @3ddx.com).

  2. Turn on 2-Step Verification

    Click Security on the left. Under How you sign in to Google, click 2-Step Verification, then Turn on, and follow Google's steps (it sends a code to your phone). If it already says On, go to step 3.

  3. Open App passwords

    Go to myaccount.google.com/apppasswords. Google may ask for your normal password again; type it.

  4. Make one for 3DDX

    In the box App name, type 3DDX and click Create.

  5. Copy the 16 letters

    Google shows a box with 16 letters in four groups, like abcd efgh ijkl mnop. That is your Gmail app password. Copy it (spaces do not matter).

  6. Sign in to 3DDX

    Come back to the 3DDX sign-in, paste the 16 letters in Gmail app password, fill in your work email, CP login ID and CP password, and click Sign in.

If step 3 says the setting is not available, 2-Step Verification is still off: do step 2 first. If you change your Google password later, the app password stops working: make a new one the same way and sign in again. Lost it? Google never shows it twice. Make a new one.
