Requirements

Currently, MuffinBite supports two methods for sending emails, either through the Gmail API or via SMTP service providers.

Each method has a few setup requirements. You can easily meet these by following the mini tutorials provided below.

The first requirement is that Python must be installed on your system. You can download Python (version >=3.10, <3.13) from here.

To use Google Gmail, you’ll need to download the Gmail API client file from Google Cloud Console.

Download the file using the steps below:

  1. Step 1: Create a project and select it to use on Google Console.
    Note:
    1. You can use any google account of your choice, but we suggest to use the least important one.
  2. Step 2: Search for "Gmail API".
  3. Step 3: Download the credentials file.
    Note:
    1. Rename the downloaded file to credentials.json.
    2. Enter your primary email in the “User support email” and “Developer contact information” fields.
