You won’t be granted production access from Google( you asking to read personal information) . [Bubble.io](http://Bubble.io) doesn’t match their security requirements. You will need your own code based app and pay big cash for security part.

I’ve been through that already. They sent me a huge PDF of security issues after their own audit.

Bubble support respond me back that they cannot make those changes as it involves touching a source code

u could build a small node js app that integrates with [https://www.nylas.com/](https://www.nylas.com/) and speaks with your bubble app ( good news is security part handled by this provider so u don’t have to care about audit from google ). Mind pricing tho
