# Integrating with Google Workspace

#### Formerly G Suite

> [!NOTE]

> Google Workspace is the new name for G Suite. This guide refers to the connector as "Google Workspace" except where "G Suite" is still used, such as in some user interface configurations.

The SailPoint Google Workspace connector manages accounts, groups, and roles from all available domains of Google Workspace for Business, Education, or ISP when the service account provided in the application configuration has sufficient access to those domains.

It also manages Gmail delegates for accounts, moves users between Organizational Units, and manages account and group attributes.

The Google Workspace connector:

- Uses the standard exponential backoff strategy recommended by Google to handle errors during aggregation.
- Manages Identity and Access Management (IAM) in Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
- Manages accounts, groups, and roles for the GCP organization infrastructure, including multiple user types and user access across resources through IAM policies.

Google Cloud Platform is a suite of public cloud computing services offered by Google. The platform includes hosted services for compute, storage, and application development that run on Google hardware.
