Managing Google Workspace entitlement assignments

In a customer, users can have different entitlements, which are mapped in One Identity Manager as follows:

  • Entitlement for logging in to Google Workspace

    Table: Google Workspace Products and SKUs (GAPPaSku)

  • Administrative entitlements

    Table: Google Workspace Admin role designations (GAPOrgAdminRole)

  • Entitlement for the use of Google Workspace groups

    Table: Google Workspace Groups (GAPGroup)

Entitlement assignments refer to the assignment of the various entitlements to user accounts. These include:

  • Google Workspace user accounts: assignments to products and SKUs (GAPUserInPaSku table)

  • Google Workspace user accounts: assignments to admin role designations (GAPUserInOrgAdminRole table)

  • Google Workspace user accounts: assignments to groups (GAPUserInGroup table)

  • Google Workspace groups: assignments to customers (GAPCustomerInGroup table)

Assigning Google Workspace entitlements to user accounts in One Identity Manager

In One Identity Manager, Google Workspace entitlements can be assigned directly or indirectly to employees.

In the case of indirect assignment, employees and entitlements are organized in hierarchical roles. The number of entitlements assigned to an employee is calculated from the position in the hierarchy and the direction of inheritance. If the employee has a Google Workspace user account, the entitlements are assigned to this user account.

Entitlements can also be assigned to employees through IT Shop requests. To enable the assignment of entitlements using IT Shop requests, employees are added as customers in a shop. All entitlements assigned to this shop as products can be requested by the customers. After approval is granted, requested entitlements are assigned to the employees.

You can use system roles to group entitlements together and assign them to employees as a package. You can create system roles that contain only Google Workspace entitlements. You can also group any number of company resources into a system role.

To react quickly to special requests, you can also assign the entitlements directly to user accounts.

Prerequisites for indirect assignment of Google Workspace entitlements to Google Workspace user accounts

In the case of indirect assignment, employees and Google Workspace entitlements are assigned to hierarchical roles, such as departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles. When assigning Google Workspace entitlements indirectly, check the following settings and modify them if necessary.

  1. The assignment of employees, Google Workspace products and SKUs, Google Workspace admin role assignments, and Google Workspace groups is permitted for departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles.

    For more information, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.

    ClosedAllow assignments to role classes of departments, cost centers, locations, or roles

  2. Settings for assigning Google Workspace entitlements to Google Workspace user accounts.

    • Google Workspace user accounts are labeled with the Products and SKUs can be inherited, Admin roles assignments can be inherited, and Groups can be inherited options.

    • Google Workspace user accounts are linked with an employee through the UID_Person (Person) column.

    • Google Workspace user accounts and entitlements belong to the same customer.

NOTE: There are other configuration settings that play a role when company resources are inherited through departments, cost centers, locations, and business roles. For example, role inheritance might be blocked or inheritance of employees not allowed. For more detailed information about the basic principles for assigning company resources, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.
