Configuring Google Directory

In order to integrate your Google Directory data with OrgChart, ensure that your data includes at least the following fields:

Create a Service Account and Web App

It is recommended that you create a service account that is linked to this integration. Please read the following instructions, provided by Google, for Creating a Service Account.

After doing so, create a web application for the OrgChart integration, along with an associated API client that has permission to read employee data.

If you need assistance for configuring a web app, contact your Google System Administrator for more information.
