Capabilities

  • Sync user identities from Google Identity Platform to ConductorOne

Set up the Google Identity Platform integration

This task requires either the Integration Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne.

  1. In ConductorOne, open Admin and click Integrations > Google Identity Platform.

  2. If this is your first Google Identity Platform integration, the integration form opens automatically. Otherwise, click Add connector.

  3. Choose whether to add the new Google Identity Platform connector as a data source to an existing application (and select the app of your choice) or to create a new application.

    Do you SSO into Google Identity Platform using your identity provider (IdP)? If so, make sure to add the connector to the Google Identity Platform app that was created automatically when you integrated your IdP with ConductorOne, rather than creating a new app.

  1. Set the integration owner for this connector. You can manage the integration yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple integration owners is allowed.

    A Google Identity Platform integration owner must have the following permissions:

    • Integration Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
    • Super Admin role in Google Identity Platform
  1. Click Create and add details.

Next steps

  • If you are the integration owner, proceed to Integrate your Google Identity Platform instance for instructions on integrating Google Identity Platform with ConductorOne.

  • If someone else is the integration owner, ConductorOne will notify them by email that their help is needed to complete the integration.
