Came across your question trying to figure this out myself today.

  1. Request body : {"raw";"to:[email protected]","subject":"Test_Mail"}

The raw param should be a complete email message that's base64-encoded.

i.e.: {"raw": "VG86IHVzZXIxbWFpbEBnbWFpbC5jb20KU3ViamVjdDogVGVzdF9NYWls"}

400 error means bad request, which could mean there are missing or wrong parameters. Check the Users.messages.send

Path parameters

userId string The user's email address. The special value me can be used to indicate the authenticated user.

Required query parameters

uploadType string The type of upload request to the /upload URI. Acceptable values are:

media - Simple upload. Upload the media only, without any metadata.

multipart - Multipart upload. Upload both the media and its metadata, in a single request.

resumable - Resumable upload. Upload the file in a resumable fashion, using a series of at least two requests where the first request includes the metadata.
