• Domain name

• Admin Email

• Service Account Email

Please acquire the service account public key from our team.

Steps to obtain the required fields

1. Log in to the google admin console.

2. Select a project or create a new project in your organization.

3. Enable the Google Drive API by going to APIs and Services > Library, looking up the Google Drive API and Admin SDK API and enabling them.

   
4. Now go into APIs and Services > Credentials and click on your project.

5. Create a new Service Account by clicking the Create Credentials button.Please consult the guide for further information.

   

   
6. After this, click on the service account email you just created. Go to the Keys section, click on Add Key > Upload Existing Key and upload the provided public key.

7. To assign API scopes to the service account in the Admin console, go to Menu > Security, Access and data control > API controls.

8. Click Manage Domain Wide Delegation.

9. Click Add new and enter your service account client ID. You can find the ID (also known as the Unique ID) in the JSON file that you downloaded when you created the service account or in Google Cloud (click IAM & Admin > Service accounts and then the name of your service account).

10. In OAuth Scopes, add the following scopes:

    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.group.readonly

    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user.readonly

    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly

11. Click Authorize.

If you run into an error, it is generally because the client ID might not be registered with Google or there might be duplicate or unsupported scopes. So kindly re-check and perform the above steps.
