### Error: "The app is blocked" ![How to Set Up Google Workspace: Error: "The app is blocked"](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/4/f/a/a/4faab8f2b2ab0400/screenshot-2025-01-15-at-22058_m3eaji.png)

If you see this error when connecting your email:

**Error message:**
"This app is blocked. This app tried to access sensitive info in your Google Account. To keep your account safe, Google blocked this access."

**Cause:** Your Google Workspace administrator hasn't granted all required permissions to the 100Hires app, or only granted partial permissions.

**Solution:**

1. Contact your Google Workspace administrator
2. Ask them to go to Google Admin Console at [admin.google.com](https://admin.google.com)
3. Navigate to: **Apps** > **Google Workspace Marketplace apps** > **Apps list**
4. Find **100Hires** or **Free Recruiting Software by 100Hires ATS** ![How to Set Up Google Workspace: Error: "The app is blocked"](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/4/f/a/a/4faab8f2b2ab0400/2_ljvctt.png)
5. Verify all OAuth scopes show as granted (all should be green/checked) ![How to Set Up Google Workspace: Error: "The app is blocked"](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/4/f/a/a/4faab8f2b2ab0400/3_1joyt9f.png)

6. If any permissions are missing, click **Grant access** for all scopes
7. Return to 100Hires and try connecting your email again

**Note:** Only Google Workspace administrators can grant these permissions. Regular users cannot authorize the app themselves.
