Google Mail
Since Camel 2.15
Both producer and consumer are supported
The Google Mail component provides access to Gmail via the Google Mail Web APIs.
Google Mail uses the OAuth 2.0 protocol for authenticating a Google account and authorizing access to user data. Before you can use this component, you will need to create an account and generate OAuth credentials. Credentials comprise of a clientId, clientSecret, and a refreshToken. A handy resource for generating a long-lived refreshToken is the OAuth playground.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-google-mail</artifactId>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
<version>x.y.z</version>
</dependency>URI Format
The GoogleMail Component uses the following URI format:
google-mail://endpoint-prefix/endpoint?[options]
Configuring Options
Camel components are configured on two separate levels:
-
component level
-
endpoint level
Configuring Component Options
The component level is the highest level which holds general and common configurations that are inherited by the endpoints. For example a component may have security settings, credentials for authentication, urls for network connection and so forth.
Some components only have a few options, and others may have many. Because components typically have pre configured defaults that are commonly used, then you may often only need to configure a few options on a component; or none at all.
Configuring components can be done with the Component DSL, in a configuration file (application.properties|yaml), or directly with Java code.
Configuring Endpoint Options
Where you find yourself configuring the most is on endpoints, as endpoints often have many options, which allows you to configure what you need the endpoint to do. The options are also categorized into whether the endpoint is used as consumer (from) or as a producer (to), or used for both.
Configuring endpoints is most often done directly in the endpoint URI as path and query parameters. You can also use the Endpoint DSL as a type safe way of configuring endpoints.
A good practice when configuring options is to use Property Placeholders, which allows to not hardcode urls, port numbers, sensitive information, and other settings. In other words placeholders allows to externalize the configuration from your code, and gives more flexibility and reuse.
The following two sections lists all the options, firstly for the component followed by the endpoint.
Component Options
The Google Mail component supports 10 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
applicationName (common) |
Google mail application name. Example would be camel-google-mail/1.0. |
String |
|
clientId (common) |
Client ID of the mail application. |
String |
|
configuration (common) |
To use the shared configuration. |
GoogleMailConfiguration |
|
bridgeErrorHandler (consumer) |
Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. |
boolean |
|
lazyStartProducer (producer) |
Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. |
boolean |
|
autowiredEnabled (advanced) |
Whether autowiring is enabled. This is used for automatic autowiring options (the option must be marked as autowired) by looking up in the registry to find if there is a single instance of matching type, which then gets configured on the component. This can be used for automatic configuring JDBC data sources, JMS connection factories, AWS Clients, etc. |
true |
boolean |
clientFactory (advanced) |
To use the GoogleCalendarClientFactory as factory for creating the client. Will by default use BatchGoogleMailClientFactory. |
GoogleMailClientFactory |
|
accessToken (security) |
OAuth 2 access token. This typically expires after an hour so refreshToken is recommended for long term usage. |
String |
|
clientSecret (security) |
Client secret of the mail application. |
String |
|
refreshToken (security) |
OAuth 2 refresh token. Using this, the Google Calendar component can obtain a new accessToken whenever the current one expires - a necessity if the application is long-lived. |
String |
Endpoint Options
The Google Mail endpoint is configured using URI syntax:
google-mail:apiName/methodName
with the following path and query parameters:
Path Parameters (2 parameters)
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|

String |
|
clientId (common) |
Client ID of the mail application. |
String |
|
inBody (common) |
Sets the name of a parameter to be passed in the exchange In Body. |
String |
|
bridgeErrorHandler (consumer) |
Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. |
boolean |
|
sendEmptyMessageWhenIdle (consumer) |
If the polling consumer did not poll any files, you can enable this option to send an empty message (no body) instead. |
boolean |
|
exceptionHandler (consumer (advanced)) |
To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this option is not in use. By default the consumer will deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. |
ExceptionHandler |
|
exchangePattern (consumer (advanced)) |
Sets the exchange pattern when the consumer creates an exchange. Enum values:
|
ExchangePattern |
|
pollStrategy (consumer (advanced)) |
A pluggable org.apache.camel.PollingConsumerPollingStrategy allowing you to provide your custom implementation to control error handling usually occurred during the poll operation before an Exchange have been created and being routed in Camel. |
PollingConsumerPollStrategy |
|
lazyStartProducer (producer) |
Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. |

int |
|
backoffMultiplier (scheduler) |
To let the scheduled polling consumer backoff if there has been a number of subsequent idles/errors in a row. The multiplier is then the number of polls that will be skipped before the next actual attempt is happening again. When this option is in use then backoffIdleThreshold and/or backoffErrorThreshold must also be configured. |
int |
|
delay (scheduler) |
Milliseconds before the next poll. |
500 |
long |
greedy (scheduler) |
If greedy is enabled, then the ScheduledPollConsumer will run immediately again, if the previous run polled 1 or more messages. |

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration
When using google-mail with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-google-mail-starter</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>The component supports 25 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
camel.component.google-mail-stream.access-token |
OAuth 2 access token. This typically expires after an hour so refreshToken is recommended for long term usage. |
String |
|
camel.component.google-mail-stream.application-name |
Google mail application name. Example would be camel-google-mail/1.0 |
String |
|
camel.component.google-mail-stream.autowired-enabled |
Whether autowiring is enabled. This is used for automatic autowiring options (the option must be marked as autowired) by looking up in the registry to find if there is a single instance of matching type, which then gets configured on the component. This can be used for automatic configuring JDBC data sources, JMS connection factories, AWS Clients, etc. |
true |
Boolean |
camel.component.google-mail-stream.bridge-error-handler |
Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. |
false |
Boolean |
camel.component.google-mail-stream.client-factory |
The client Factory. The option is a org.apache.camel.component.google.mail.GoogleMailClientFactory type. |

Whether to enable auto configuration of the google-mail component. This is enabled by default. |
Boolean |
|
camel.component.google-mail.lazy-start-producer |
Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. |
false |
Boolean |
camel.component.google-mail.refresh-token |
OAuth 2 refresh token. Using this, the Google Calendar component can obtain a new accessToken whenever the current one expires - a necessity if the application is long-lived. |
