Error Message
Google Groups Migration Error
Get Groups Error: Login to Google Failed: Invalid Password: Wrong password. Try again.
This error occurs when attempting to retrieve Google Groups for migration.
Root Cause
Incorrect Connector Credentials
The credentials configured in the source connector for Google Groups migration are incorrect. The authentication to Google is failing due to invalid email address or password.
Common Causes
- • Password was recently changed
- • Incorrect password entered
- • Account requires app-specific password
- • Two-factor authentication enabled
Solution
Update Connector Credentials
1
Verify Credentials
Test your Google admin credentials by logging into the Google Admin Console directly.
2
Edit Source Connector
Navigate to your Google source connector in Cloudiway and update the email address and password fields.
3
Restart Get Groups
After saving the updated credentials, restart the Get Group task to retrieve your Google Groups.
Service Account Recommended
For Google Groups migration, consider using a service account with
domain-wide delegation instead of user credentials. This avoids
password expiration issues.
