Does Gmail API (for business) not send email from Alias?

I want to email my clients using different "roles" (e.g. info @, customer support @, technical support @, no-reply @).

I tried 2 approaches:

  • Several "users" / accounts in my Gmail for business application.
  • A single gmail account with several aliases.

I started by creating a global delegation service account for my Gmail for business application.

To verify that this works, I created 2 users: lev@mydomain.com and root@mydomain.com. Indeed, I can successfully send emails from both lev @ and root @.

However, when I tried to add 5 separate user accounts for my application, Gmail got a paranoid bot / abuse and asked me to prove that all accounts are β€œpeople”, including setting passwords, authorization and checking SMS text via Phone. Moreover, they require different phones for different accounts in order to prove this to another person. Thus, setting up accounts becomes a serious problem.

I also want to avoid creating multiple accounts, because I pay for each, and because semantically all roles are just one account. So aliases seem like a better idea.

, "from" (, from: no-reply@mydomain.com), :

Exception in thread "main" com.google.api.client.googleapis.json.GoogleJsonResponseException: 403 Forbidden
{
  "code" : 403,
  "errors" : [ {
    "domain" : "global",
    "message" : "Delegation denied for root@mydomain.com",
    "reason" : "forbidden"
  } ],
  "message" : "Delegation denied for root@mydomain.com"
}
