Solved Can't add gmail in Vivaldi Mail
-
A fix for this was pushed on the 23rd of Feb
VB-86619 Google OAuth dialog fails to open if there are any active extensions
It will be out in the next snapshot.
In the meantime there's a workaround
Temporarily disable the extensions while logging in so they won't block the OAuth pop up -
finally...
was able to add my office365 account after turning off all extensions -
The Modal/window that pops when trying to add an email account via OAuth, as well as the add Google Calendar both will pop open the window to login, and then immediately close it. The only error is the setup screen saying "Could not connect".
For the gmail, I was able to use an app password as a workaround, but I cannot add my google calendar in any other way.

Do you guys have to do the OAuth verify everyday?
My office365 account needs to verify everyday
Now when I find my mail is not receiving any emails, I have to disable all my extensions in order to unblock the OAuth pop up... -

No of course not. For some reason this happens to some people. We haven't quite figured it out yet, but are working on it.
In the mean time, you could try using an App Password as a workaround

Like I mentioned before (if this is the same issue) then a fix is already in and will be out in the next snapshot (which should be out today).

Thanks, @gmg
Looks like my org does not allow app passwords...
have to wait for the fix -
I got a mail from Google today stating user/pass will be completely impossible from May. Great.
Lucky I don't actually care about my GMail account (was only created when setting up Android in 2010) but it will no longer be popped into my Opera mail archive any more...

Just got the same... -
@mossman
Was that in regards to two factor authentication being mandated or no longer supporting App Password or something else? -
