Basic authentication and MV2 extensions deprecations
Review how the upcoming deprecations of Basic authentication for specific protocols in Exchange Online (starting from October 1, 2022) and Manifest V2 extensions (by January 2023) will impact your automations.
Basic authentication
If you are using bots for email automation that connect to Exchange Online using IMAP, POP3, or EWS protocols with Basic authentication, your bots will be impacted.
We plan to provide Version 11.3.5.7 Client patch version with OAuth 2.0 support as part of email automation in the week of October 10, 2022. You can upgrade to the Version 11.3.5.7 Client patch to use OAuth 2.0 support for IMAP and POP3 protocols. You should update the impacted bots by replacing each email command using Basic authentication with OAuth 2.0 authentication.
Protocols | Enterprise 11 command | Our plan | Our recommendation |
---|---|---|---|
EWS | Email automation | The EWS option currently supports both Basic and OAuth 2.0 authentication |
|
EWS | Email trigger | Enhance the Email Trigger and Loop actions to support OAuth 2.0 for EWS |
|
IMAP and POP3 | Email automation and trigger | Enhance the Email server option to support OAuth 2.0 for IMAP and POP3 protocols |
|
SMTP | Email Settings in | No changes required. | This protocol is currently excluded from the Basic authentication deprecation. Therefore, there is no impact to bots that use SMTP for email automation. |

Manifest V2 extensions
As Google will deprecate Manifest V2 extensions by June 2023, automations that use our current Chrome extensions will stop working by June 2023. You can use the enterprise group policy to continue using the current extensions until January 2024. However, post this date, you have to switch to V3 extensions for your automations to work.
We will publish a new Chrome extension updated with Manifest V3 as part of the Version 11.3.5.8 (Client patch) planned for 27 January 2023. If you have bots impacted by the deprecation of Manifest V2 extensions, you should upgrade to one of these patches to use the updated extensions.
