Group Entitlements

Identity Security Cloud is capable of aggregating additional details of Group Entitlements from the managed system. These objects have a separate schema which defines a list of attributes. Aggregation tasks fetch the defined attributes as additional details when it runs aggregation processes for a specific Group Entitlement type.

Supported Google Workspace objects include:

  • Groups

  • Roles

Supported GCP objects are:

  • IAM Roles

  • Projects

  • Folders

  • Resource Permissions

Google Workspace Groups are both accounts and entitlements in GCP support. GCP entitlement resource permissions can be assigned to Google Workspace Groups.

Note
Only Group, Role, and Resource Permissions can be requested as multiple group entitlements.
