# Gmail node common issues

Here are some common errors and issues with the [Gmail node](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/node-types) and steps to resolve or troubleshoot them.

## Remove the Automated Workflows attribution from sent messages

If you're using the node to [send a message](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/app-nodes/ts-wf-nodes-base.gmail/message-operations#send-a-message) or [reply to a message](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/app-nodes/ts-wf-nodes-base.gmail/message-operations#reply-to-a-message), the node appends this statement to the end of the email:

> This email was sent automatically with Automated Workflows


To remove this attribution:

1. In the node's **Options** section, select **Add option**.
2. Select **Append Automated Workflows attribution**.
3. Turn the toggle off.


Refer to [Send options](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/app-nodes/ts-wf-nodes-base.gmail/message-operations#send-options) and [Reply options](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/app-nodes/ts-wf-nodes-base.gmail/message-operations#reply-options) for more information.

## Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials

This error displays next to certain dropdowns in the node, like the **Label Names or IDs** dropdown. The full text looks something like this:

```
There was a problem loading the parameter options from server: "Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials?"
```

The error most often displays when you're using a Google Service Account as the credential and the credential doesn't have **Impersonate a User** turned on.

Refer to [Google Service Account: Finish your Automated Workflows credential](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/credentials/google/service-account.md#finish-your-Automated Workflows-credential) for more information.

## 401 unauthorized error

The full text of the error looks like this:

```
401 - {"error":"unauthorized_client","error_description":"Client is unauthorized to retrieve access tokens using this method, or client not authorized for any of the scopes requested."}
```

This error occurs when there's an issue with the credential you're using and its scopes or permissions.

To resolve:

1. For [OAuth2](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/credentials/google/oauth-single-service) credentials, make sure you've enabled the Gmail API in **APIs & Services > Library**. Refer to [Google OAuth2 Single Service - Enable APIs](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/credentials/google/oauth-single-service#enable-apis) for more information.
2. For [Service Account](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/credentials/google/service-account) credentials:
  1. [Enable domain-wide delegation](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/credentials/google/service-account#enable-domain-wide-delegation).
  2. Make sure you add the Gmail API as part of the domain-wide delegation configuration.


## Bad request - please check your parameters

This error most often occurs if you enter a Message ID, Thread ID, or Label ID that doesn't exist.

Try a **Get** operation with the ID to confirm it exists.
