Enable Google Object Activity History

Cloudlock for Google provides an activity history for assets. This history can be accessed through incidents in the Object Activity, or the asset details of an object (such as a document.) In order to view these details, you must enable data access to Google's activity APIs.

While you may have had access to these APIs previously, recent changes in Google's APIs require reauthorization of the activity scopes.

  2. Navigate to Apps > Google Workspace Marketplace apps.
  3. Search for Cloudlock Security Fabric or Cloudlock for Google Apps and select the app. (The app available in your marketplace depends on when your instance of Cloudlock was created.)
