How to add a child's Gmail account to Microsoft Family's MS Outlook?

Question

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to add my child's email accounts to their MS Outlook program. One account is their personal Gmail, and the other one is from school and also on the Gmail.com platform. However, I keep getting an error message that says: "Here it is not allowed to sign-in with Family-link app / Zde se nesmí přihlašovat účty spravované pomocí aplikace Family Link."

I have tried changing the settings of Family Link, but I was not able to solve the issue.

Thank you, Daniel

Hi @Daniel Šimáně

Welcome to our forum!

Please kindly understand that the Outlook tag here we mainly focus on general issues about Outlook desktop client.

Can other Gmail accounts be added to the Outlook client normally?

Based on my search, I'm afraid there is no official document that provides steps to add a child's Gmail account. The work or school account you use with Gmail can be added to the Outlook client as described in this document: Add an email account to Outlook for Windows.

In addition, considering that this issue may be related to the account, and I have found many users in the Gmail community who have the same problem, it is recommended that you contact your email provider: https://support.google.com/mail/thread/13783930/collecting-gmail-using-the-outlook-app-for-child-account-in-windows-10?hl=en.
