Why didn't you just use something like Mailinator? They specialize in this exact thing. Gives you an API to grab links and everything. That's what I use.

Yup plus webhooks are overkill for this. Need to set up a public HTTP server and pass messages to your agents. With websockets you can open connection right from your agent and close it in seconds once the 2FA code is delivered.

... you had to use Zapier to extract an email from an inbox?

Google API scopes for email are pretty restrictive, which is generally a good thing from a security perspective.

Retrieving e-mail using the Google API is just about trivial. You can generate a code snippet in Grok or what have you in about 30 seconds to do it.

Alternatively you can set up IMAP access.

Obviously you have to be able to configure proper OAuth2 keys to do this, but again, that's another 30 seconds spent in Grok/GPT/Claude/whatever.

Most gmail scopes are restricted which means you’ll need to pass a CASA assessment to have proper production access to them.
