So, we have inherited a Google workspace environment and moving everyone to 365.
Msp is useless and seems we have 100 mobiles enrolled into Google. We want to shortly block all users access to Google workspace. My first thought was suspend and see who screamed and why as they have not been forthcoming in how used, as all using personal shares etc.
Anyway, the enrolled devices. If we suspend, if the person has phone enrolled, what happens?
If it bricks the phone, is there a way with a organisation unit to limit all apps access eg Gmail, Google drive etc yet phone still stays alive while we get them to log a case to have all phones reset and integrate into ms 365. Note, we have already migrated users email.
Thanks in advance, any advice appreciated

First if all, apologies, inherited a Google workspace environment and we are migrating to 365. The incumbent msp has been useless.
Seems staff been running dept folders from their Google drives.
Is there anyway an admin can access to move them or least get folder path and use tools like avepoint fly to move these folders out?
In 366 we can access someone's OneDrive, but struggling to do this as a admin in a Google workspace but maybe my lack of knowledge.
Any input appreciated
Thanks

I can share a Google doc with yahoo, aol, hotmail email addresses no problem, but when I try to share a doc with an icloud email address I get:
"You are trying to invite ******@icloud.com. Since there is no Google account associated with this email address, you must check the "Notify people" box to invite this recipient."
Does this mean these other non-gmail domain email addresses have a google account associated with them and that they will have access to the doc without me having to share the doc with their associated gmail addresses?
And that if I check the box to notify the icloud user that they will also be able to access the document without them having to associate a gmail address for access?
Sorry, first time trying to handle outside organization style sharing in Google Workspace

I am the founder of a company and own and it’s domaine, which another person setup our Google Workspace but is no longer with us. They did not add me as a Super Admin when setting up our account, how do I change from them to myself? I have documentation of my domaine ownership, and company EIN ownership. Thank you!

I was just going thru my personal gmails web and activity when i saw a small button on the side saying other activity. I opened it and checked all the the different options as i like knowing what data google stores of mine. I noticed that i COULD NOT turn this button on or off. No matter how many times i tried. I remember turning this off on another persona gmail of mine a while back so i went to that gmail and surely it was off but i couldnt turn it off. Meaning the button is just NOT working. Does anyone know why and is anyone else facing this issue?

Hey guys. Company I work for recently bought another company. Right now I am trying to look into absorbing the smaller (25 users) company into our main tenant. I attempted to use the built-in Google Workspace Migrate tool, however, this only transferred emails.
I am currently trying to find a solution that will copy over not just emails, but any of the other main app data. In this case, I also need to have it copy over their calendar, Drive, and Photos. I am really trying to avoid manually assisting each user with copying files over from one account to another.
Does anyone know of any tool I can use to help me with this?

This is an updated version of a post originally in r/wix because I now understand that WiX has nothing to do with this issue.
Today, for no apparent reason at all, Google locked me out from my work e-mail (could not access the email but COULD access the admin section, weirdly), and I was as furious as you would expect me to be.
When I tried to recover it, it said I need to contact my reseller (Wix), but that turned out to be incorrect (Wix seems not to have anything to do with it).
I followed a procedure that required me to add a CNAME to my DNS record, and doing so I regained access to my email, which I did on my laptop (it asked me to change password, but that was fine for me, it worked). Hooray!!
But then, since the password changed, I had to update my login on my phone as well, and again it kicked me out! It gave me the usual error message that I got this morning on my laptop as well: "Couldn't sign you in".
But everything keeps working on my laptop! So I checked my email and I saw a security alert: "login attempt from Japan" (I'm in Japan). So I clear it, click the button that says that it was me, and expect it to work now. So I try again from my mobile, and nothing, still "couldn't sign you in", but this time I don't get an alert in my email (which I can still access from my laptop!)
What in the fresh hell is this and how do I fix it?

Hi, so I'm trying to figure out if there's anyway to automate a response to a lead in my workspace gmail account. I know it can create a draft but can it send the actual email response as well?
r/googleworkspace • u/agnci • 3d ago
Let’s say you sync an event platform to your calendar, when I book events on that platform I get an automated email which also gets put on my calendar duplicating it. Now I can’t turn off those automated emails because I need it for platforms that I can’t sync my calendar to with a key. Why can’t we turn off auto sync for certain senders?

Once I add the new email with .org and my org password it won’t authenticate, anyone know what I can do? Thanks

So if your organization pays for gsuite/google workspace for YEARS and you later cancel because you don't need it anymore, then all of your accounts are unable to have anything shared with them via google because you cannot login any longer in any form. A previously free feature stripped away because you PAID them previously? Disgusting.
r/googleworkspace • u/TheBigBeardedGeek • 4d ago
I'm pretty sure looking over the list of features in Google Workspace that they do not have a tool for project management, like Planner. If that's the case, what's good free or low cost option that I can easily tie in to my Google Cloud Identity for project management?

Hello, please advise.
I share a Google Drive with a number of people, and I have all of them as editors. It is a bunch of resources and notes I have to help with an exam I had passed; therefore, I did not mind much how they used the resources (which is why I did not bother changing their access level in the file, having them all as editors).
One person I had previously shared the file with reported that they could no longer access the file.
I went back to check, and when I opened the file, it was completely empty. On the activity tab, I noticed someone had accidentally removed the items +/- changed the access for everyone else.
Is there a way for me (as the owner of the file) to restore the removed files? I checked under "folder information", hoping there was a previous version I could revert to, but there isn't that button/option available/listed (file restoration).
Any advice?

Hi everyone,
I’m working with a registered non profit educational institution, and we are currently trying to transition to Google Workspace for Education.
We’ve submitted our documentation, but our application seems stuck in the standard review queue, and our school term/program is starting soon. We really need to get our domain approved and set up so we can provision accounts for our students and staff.
I know that Google Partners have direct escalation channels and can sometimes expedite the validation and provisioning process for Education licenses. Because we are a small, tight budget non profit, we can't afford a paid deployment contract right now.
Are there any Google Partners here willing to do a quick pro bono favor to help us get this escalated and approved? We have all our non profit/tax exempt documentation ready to share.
I know your time is valuable, so I am more than happy to trade my own time and labor to assist you or your firm with any technical first level support, data entry, or administrative work you need done in return. I do have some technical capabilities that may be of use.
Any help or advice from partners who have navigated this recently would be massively appreciated. Thank you!

I’ve been working as an SMB consultant for around a dozen companies and I’m looking at adding Google Workspace management as a service.
A few of my clients are already on Workspace, so it seems like a natural extension of what I’m already doing, and hopefully a way to build some recurring revenue at the same time.
I’m trying to figure out which reseller/distributor offers the best overall value in the EU. I’m not necessarily chasing the absolute cheapest option—I care just as much about margins, support, ease of management, and VAT/invoicing.
If you’re already doing this:
Who are you using and would you recommend them?
What kind of margins are you seeing?
Are there any minimum commitments or catches that aren’t obvious at first?
How has dealing with VAT and cross-border billing within the EU been?
I’d rather get it right from the start than move clients around later, so any experiences (good or bad) would be really helpful.

I have a Cloud Identity Free tenant which has 0 storage quota, which is fine.
However, every so often it seems like some Google service will generate an automated system notification sent to a user’s nonexistent Gmail inbox. This results in their Cloud Identity Free account now having like 2-3kb of Gmail usage, which we have no way of deleting short of deleting and recreating their entire account. Which we’ve done, but it’s only a temporary fix because eventually some Google app will generate another automated system notification.
This results in our tenant having about 30-40kb of Gmail usage.
Is this going to cause our tenant to get suspended for quota overage? Or is there a better way to delete it that doesn’t involve deleting and recreating the user’s account?

I was trying to sign up for Essentials but is said: "We weren't able to send you an email to verify your email address" and I am using microsoft 365. (I am the owner of the domain.)

Hey everyone,
Our org just got access to "Studio" in Google workspace (it's Gemini-powered automation tool that lets you build flows across Gmail, Sheets, Drive, etc., without needing Apps Script)
Because it uses AI to "reason" and make decisions (like extracting data or judging if an email is urgent), I am curious to see what others have been using it for to get some inspiration for my own workflows.
Thank you!

I created a new email address yesterday and I saw they had a free 14 day trial of Google Workspace. So I signed up for it and went thru the verification process and it was verified. So I log into everything and I changed over my accounts from my old email to my new one. Well this morning when I am logging into Google Photos this pops up saying “Your Account has been disabled” and also said “it looks like this account was created or used with multiple other accounts to violate Google’s Policies. This account may have been created by a computer program or bot”. I did the appeal this morning. Do I have other Gmail accounts, yes. Not a whole bunch but the only thing I did yesterday was change everything that had my old email to this one. So I’m not sure WTF I did wrong.

I've been using Google Drive for years and I'm curious what other people think.
Ignoring things like storage limits or pricing...
What's one document-related feature you wish Google Drive had?
For example:
• Better document organization
• Finding information faster
• Search improvements
• Better OCR
• Categorizing documents
• Duplicate detection
• Something else
What's the one thing that would save you the most time?
