G Suite Identity Service

Google Directory services (G Suite) integration supplements the Cisco Umbrella Chromebook client by providing G Suite user and Organization Unit (OU) information for each applicable DNS request.

In the Google Admin console, you manage your users and Chromebooks. A common practice is to create logical groups of users such as Staff and Students, and subgroups such as high school students and middle school students in order to apply different policies for internet access and content filtering.

Integrate G Suite Identities with Umbrella

To enable the G Suite identity service for the Umbrella Chromebook client, deploy the Umbrella Authorizer app and sync your G Suite OUs and users with Umbrella. For more information, see Integrate the G Suite Identity Service.

After you integrate G Suite with Umbrella, Umbrella lists the following identity types in the policy:

• G Suite OUs
• G Suite Users

Note: When you add a policy that includes a G Suite OU identity, the policy is applied to all users who are members of that Organization Unit.
