gmail Within its various functionalities it has a special one that must be used with great caution since basically we are allowing other users to have access to our Gmail account, having the option of performing actions such as sending messages using our account name in addition to other actions which can compromise our safety but for this reason it is essential that when doing this we do it with people who are of our full confidence and for compelling reasons such as freeing ourselves from so many tasks that we carry out daily, for example, this will allow us to delegate the task of administer our received messages and reply to them which is a very good utility for this Gmail feature but as I said, everyone knows who to give these permissions to. For allow other users access to Gmail account we will follow some very simple steps actually and we will see them below.
Having already explained this feature of Gmail and having a clear idea about the utilities that we can give it, we will see the guidelines and configurations to allow other users access to our Gmail account. After logging in we go to the configuration button located at the top in the corner of the page and in the drop-down menu we will see configuration options, we choose «setting»And immediately we will see all the configuration tabs of our account, in this case what interests us is to add an account, that is, to give permission to another user so that they can perform actions on our account, so we select the «Accounts and import«.
Within this section we will see several options related to our email address, import of contacts and others, to configure the access of other users to our Gmail account we go to the bottom where we will find the option «grant access to your account»In this option we will even see a link where we will see more detailed information about this function and what it implies. We then open the link «add another account»And a window will open in which we will only have to enter the email address of the user to whom we are giving permission to access our account.
It is important to note that the address of the person to whom we are giving permission to to access to our account must be in Gmail, otherwise the permission in question. In general, it is all that has to be done, another detail to take into account is that in this option we will also see two alternatives in which when the other user opens a new message received, it remains as read or on the other hand if we want to review said messages new even though another user has already read it, it remains as unread.
I do not have the correct answer, what I want is that when I open gmail, I give the opportunity for a person other than me to open your account, because it does not allow it. But it's not about someone else logging into my account. NOOO.
The thing is that I only have one computer and I want another person who lives with me to be able to enter to make their own, but not from that person to use mine.
