Google Workspace Admin

With the Google Workspace Admin modules in Make, you can watch, list, create, update, retrieve, and delete users, roles, role assignments, and organizational units.

To get started with Google Workspace Admin, create an account at https://workspace.google.com.

Note

Make's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy.

Connect Google Workspace Admin to Make

  1. Log in to your Make account, add a Google Workspace Admin module to your scenario, and click Create a connection.

  2. Optional: In the Connection name field, enter a name for the connection.

  3. Optional: Click Show Advanced Settings field, and enter the client credentials from your custom application. See Connecting to Google services using Oauth2.

  4. Click the Sign in with Google button and select your Google account.

  5. Review the access information and click Allow.

You have successfully established the connection. You can now begin editing scenarios and adding more Google Workspace Admin modules. If your connection needs reauthorization at any point, follow the connection renewal steps here.

Connecting to Google services using Oauth2

Make's modules' advanced settings let you enter your own OAuth2 client credentials. OAuth is a security authorization protocol to interact with your protected data that does not require sending your login information.

In order to use OAuth2 with your Google apps, you need to create your own project and a custom OAuth client in Google Cloud Console. This is useful for connecting restricted Google services, like Google Drive or Gmail, to Make.

The following procedure is intended for:

  • Personal use (@gmail.com and @googlemail.com users)

  • Organizational use (Internal use within a business or other organizationGoogle Workspace (formerly GSuite) users that prefer to use a custom OAuth client)

Prerequisites:

  • a Google account

To create a custom OAuth client for Google service you must do the following:

Create a project

  1. Sign in to Google Cloud Platform using your Google credentials.

  2. Open the Dashboard, and click the CREATE PROJECT button.

  3. Choose a name for your project, then click Create.

Enable API

  1. Click Enable APIs and services.

    googleOAuth2EnableAPIs.png

  2. Enter the name of the service you want to use (for example, Gmail API or Google Drive API) in the Enable APIs and services field.

  3. The desired service option should display as you type. Click on the API/service you want to connect to Make.

  4. Click Enable.

Create credentials

  1. Open the Credentials settings page.

    Note

    If this is not the first API/SERVICE (Gmail or Google Drive) you have enabled, you don't have to create credentials, as you have already created the credentials previously.

  2. Click + Create credentials, and select the OAuth client ID option.

  3. Fill in the required fields as follows, then click Create.

    Application type

    Web application

    Name

    e.g. Make

    Authorized redirect URIs

    Add one of the following URIs:

    • https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/google-restricted for Gmail or Google Drive

    • https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/google/ for other Google apps

    • https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/google-custom for Google Text-to-Speech and Google Natural Language

    • https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/app for any app created via the Make Developer Platform

    OAuth redirect URI domain

    Notice that the redirect URI starts with https://www.integromat.com instead of https://www.make.com. This is currently a known issue in Make.

    Make was formerly called Integromat, which means you can trust this URL as much as any Make URL.

  4. A dialog containing the app's Client ID and Client Secret is displayed.

    googleOAuth2ClientCreated.png

Enter your credentials

  3. Click Show advanced settings.

  4. Enter the Client ID and Client Secret you retrieved in step 4 of the preceding procedure into the respective fields, then click Continue.Create credentials

  5. Sign in with your Google account.

  6. The This app isn't verified window appears.

    Note

    The app referred to in this window is your OAuth client.

  7. Click on Continue.
