How to determine email address to send emails to the instance (for Inbound Email Actions)

I am trying to test the Inbound Email Action by sending email from my gmail to servicenow instance. 

But I do not know what email address I should use to send email to the ServiceNow instance.

 

I have tried the 2 emails below but they did not work

I have already set "enabled receiving email" in the email properties.

Hello @VarisaraV ,

I suggest you set the default email address to receive the email from ServiceNow instance, so that you can get the email address for inbound email action. Attaching the screenshot for the visibility.

Hi @VarisaraV ,

If you are using ServiceNow PDI then you will not be able to test it as ServiceNow has disabled the email receiving properties. Please go through the below link regarding the same:
