Hello, using app-id rules... allow traffic from inside to outside, to the application known as gmail, on app-id (as the service port).

You can add a URL category as a matching condition of web-based-email as well.

This will allow these apps:

You should follow up an immediate rule that any other traffic will be blocked.
