Syncing accounts from Google is a two-step process. Step 1 grants our application access in the Google Developer Console. Step 2 creates a token that allows us to fetch user data from Google and requires authorization from a Google Admin’s account.
Note: You must be a Google Administrator and you must use your Google Administrator account to perform the steps below.
Step 1
Before you can sync your Google domain with MyVRSpot, you will need to allow API permissions. First, login to the Google Admin console: https://admin.google.com.
After login, follow these steps:
- Once logged in to your admin account, click Security -> Access and Data Control -> Api Controls and select API controls from the left menu.
- Click the MANAGE THIRD-PARTY APP ACCESS link.
- Click the Configure new app dropdown and select OAuth App Name or Client ID.
- Search for MyVRSpot Directory and click Select.
- Click the checkbox for both entries and click SELECT.
- Select the Trusted radio button, and then click CONFIGURE.
- Step 1 is now complete.
Step 2
- Log into your District Admin account on MyVRSpot. Click on the Administrator Tools menu icon in the Top Bar Menu. Click on the Setup Google Provisioning Button.
- Click the button that says Open Google Authorization Page:
- Select your Google Administrator account:
- Allow MyVRSpot Directory to access your Google account:
- If the token was created successfully you will get a success message. We highly recommend that you click the View All Google Org Units. This will display all the Organizational Units that we can use to provision account:
- Once this has been completed, you, or any District Administrator, can build your provisioning jobs by following the instructions here.
