API로 Gmail 연결하기

SMTP 대신 Gmail API를 사용하는 이유

# Install required libraries:
# pip install google-api-python-client google-auth google-auth-oauthlib

# The Gmail API lets agents:
# - List and search messages (labels, queries)
# - Read full message content and attachments
# - Send messages via OAuth (no password needed)
# - Manage labels and threads
# - Watch for new messages via push notifications

print('Gmail API is part of Google Workspace APIs')

# Service Account approach:
# 1. Go to Google Cloud Console -> APIs & Services -> Credentials
# 2. Create a Service Account
# 3. Download the JSON key file
# 4. In Google Workspace Admin: enable domain-wide delegation
# 5. Grant required scopes to the service account

# User OAuth approach:
# 1. Create OAuth 2.0 Client ID (Desktop or Web App type)
# 2. Download credentials.json
# 3. First run: user sees consent screen and grants access
# 4. Agent stores token.json with refresh token for subsequent runs
