What is it?

About Google Workspace Admin

Google Workspace Admin is one of the Identity & Access platforms BeforeQuery connects to. Once linked, the platform's data becomes a first-class source for grounded AI answers and a target for policy-gated agent actions — the same identity, approval, and audit-log guarantees every other integration ships with.

  3. Step 03

Use cases

What teams actually do with the Google Workspace Admin integration

Self-service account unlock

User in Slack: "my Google Workspace Admin is locked, unlock me?" → BeforeQuery verifies identity via MFA challenge, unlocks the account, and confirms in 10 seconds. No IT ticket, full audit trail.

Just-in-time production access

Engineer needs prod DB access for 4 hours. Requests in Slack with justification → BeforeQuery routes to security lead → on approval, grants access via Google Workspace Admin with auto-expire at 4-hour mark. Auto-revoked; audit-logged.

Quarterly access review

Every quarter, BeforeQuery pulls the full Google Workspace Admin access map, groups by team + role, and sends managers a review packet: "confirm each of your reports still needs these apps." One-click approve; unresponsive access is flagged for revocation.

Answer questions grounded in Google Workspace Admin

Employees and customers ask Google Workspace Admin-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact Google Workspace Admin record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into Identity & Access to check" round-trips.

Google Workspace Admin — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to Google Workspace Admin.

Depends on the playbooks enabled. Read-only for Q&A. User-mgmt scopes for provisioning. Group-mgmt for access reviews. You approve each scope on install; you can remove scopes anytime and the corresponding playbooks disable automatically.
Only if explicitly scoped and approved. Policy writes always require a policy-owner approver, log the before/after state, and are fully reversible via the audit trail. Most customers keep policy writes off and use BeforeQuery for user-lifecycle actions only.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where Google Workspace Admin supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your Google Workspace Admin data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every Google Workspace Admin integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific Google Workspace Admin objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch Google Workspace Admin for real.
