# How to set up an app password for an Alias Gsuite/Google Workspace?

If you're using an alias Gsuite/Google Workspace and the 2-step verification activated, please follow this 3 ** steps tutorial** to set up your app password.

### Step 1 : Set the password

Go to your [Google Account](https://myaccount.google.com/) and open the Security tab. Search for **App passwords** in your search bar, or go directly to [App passwords](https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords) . 
An app password is a security layer that Google generates so you can use apps like Mailwarm without your main password. 
Enter a name for the app and click on **Create.**

### Step 2 : Copy the password

**Copy this password** , you'll need it to configure your SMTP on Mailwarm. Once you click done, it will disappear and you won't have access to it anymore.
