I would like to test the Google admin workspace for development usecase.
Is there any way as a developper to have an account with Google Workspace/Cloud?
On microsoft platform they have a program that provide access to a sandbox with admin panel, uers,etc...
For what I see it seems Google Developper enable only the API access but don't provide a way to access the admin panel.
Do i have to create a workspace account to try it?
Thank you.

I'm currently building a web application that works with the Gmail API. I'm waiting for approval from Google's security team to have a proper OAuth connection, but I noticed that users can pre-approve your application by searching within the API Controls settings by your App ID.
This setting is located in the Google Account via: Admin Panel > Security > API Controls > App Access Control.
I noticed that if a user does this before they try to connect your app it doesn't go against your 100 account limit within Google Developer Console while in beta.
My question is, could you have this as permanent solution to get around the Google OAuth application if Google never approves you? Of course, through this method the user is still giving permission, just curious if this has been done by anyone before.
Yes, this is allowed when all your users are Google Workspace users, and is listed under exceptions to verification requirements here: https://support.google.com/cloud/answer/9110914?hl=en. If your application is meant for a broad set of users, completing app verification is necessary.

I am using the Google Admin SDK APIs to manage users (create/update) in our organization's Google apps account. We allow users to optionally use the 2-factor authentication feature and I'd like to be able to determine if an account has it enabled or not when one of our internal support reps looks up their account. Looking over the docs at https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/v1/reference/users, I do not see any attributes that would indicate this setting.
Is there another way for me to check if it is enabled via an API?
Saw an answer from an old Stackoverflow post:
Find all Google Apps users not using two-factor authentication
You can actually find that information via Reports API of Admin SDK:
https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/reports/v1/reference/usage-ref-appendix-a/users-accounts
Hope this helps!
I searched on the Web to find an evidence for changing Gmail settings through google admin sdk but I could not find anything!
I want to add labels to a gmail account(x#gmail.com) through google admin sdk. I just need to know is it possible or not? if it is, how should I get my authentication keys.
Best,
Majid
Yes, this is possible.
Within the Admin SDK, you'll see an option on the left, Manage Settings. From here, you can click on Email Settings. Managing labels are specifically detailed here and the authorization info can be found within the Email Settings API Authentication section.
Hope this helps!
Not possible on an #gmail.com account. Admin SDK is for Google Apps admins only
My team is trying to develop a product for the google apps marketplace and I am having issues with the workflow in the new ADMIN SDK.
With the now deprecated Provisioning API we simply ask for a username and password from the account we are trying to manage.
With the ADMIN SDK it seems as though they would need to go enable the API, create a key and do a lot of manual work for this to happen. This really is a tough option for us as the technical level of our clients is not likely to be able to make this transition.
Is there something like the work flow for the provisioning API where they can enable management from a third party or a recommended workflow for a developer to build an application that can access any number of google apps accounts?
A use case for this is say I want to develop a different option for a console, I want to build a console web app and simply ask for credentials or easy setup routine and allow our users to manage their google apps account in a different way.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
The Admin SDK Directory and Reports APIs work correctly with 2-legged OAuth 1.0a which is what the Google Apps Marketplace currently supports and automates. You do need to turn the Admin SDK on under "Register for additional APIs" from your Vendor Profile page on the marketplace. Also, the Administrative APIs for the domain must be turned on. You'll get a generic error that the domain cannot use the APIs if it's off in which case you can direct the client to the exact CPanel page where they can turn it on.
I have an app hosted by google app engine, and I am having trouble with authentication.
When I login using my admin account and try to access the admin page or members pages, I just get a blank screen. I can login, and the members only menu shows when I login, but I just can't see any data from the members pages.
I'm not really sure where I should start checking? My app is registered with my google apps account and I am using the only admin login that is there.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
It sounds like you're running into the Google Apps vs Google Accounts issue. If you have a Google Apps account listed as an administrator on an app that accepts any Google account for authentication, it won't be recognized as an administrator. You need to create a regular Google account (such as a gmail address) and use that as an admin in your app.
