Zend Gdata Login with Two Step Authentication / Verification

Question

I recently activated two step verification for my Gmail account and consequently noticed that my applications which use the Zend Gdata library stopped working. I disabled two factor verification and then they started working again.

I can't find anything online about using two step verification with the Zend Gdata library. Has anyone found a solution?

Answer 1

Create application specific credentials for your applications that use Zend Gdata, and they won't need to use two step authentication.
