I'm try to send email using google gmail API. I've used Request body JSON with bearer token and Content-Type - message/rfc822.

Then I've used link below to send post request but I received the following errors.how to fix this issue ???

Post request Link -
https://www.googleapis.com/upload/gmail/v1/users/[email protected]/messages/send

Request Body 

  {
               "threadId": "Hi kasunjith",
               "payload": {
                "mimeType": "message/rfc822",
                "headers": [
                  {
                    "name": "To",
                    "value": "[email protected]"
                  },
                  {
                    "name": "From",
                    "value":"[email protected]"
                  },
                  {
                    "name":"Subject",
                    "value":"Subject Text"
                  }
                ]
              }
            }

I got response

    "error": {
        "errors": [
            {
                "domain": "global",
                "reason": "invalidArgument",
                "message": "Recipient address required"
            }
        ],
        "code": 400,
        "message": "Recipient address required"
    }
}

This means that your format in sending email is not valid. Check the documentation for Users.messages and Users.messages: send for the proper format.

{
  "id": string,
  "threadId": string,
  "labelIds": [
    string
  ],
  "snippet": string,
  "historyId": unsigned long,
  "internalDate": long,
  "payload": {
    "partId": string,
    "mimeType": string,
    "filename": string,
    "headers": [
      {
        "name": string,
        "value": string
      }
    ],
    "body": users.messages.attachments Resource,
    "parts": [
      (MessagePart)
    ]
  },
  "sizeEstimate": integer,
  "raw": bytes
}
