2-1. Add a Google Workspace Account with Automation

SaaS status: The target SaaS must already be connected. The connection must use administrator credentials (including API permissions) that allow account creation and deletion.

This guide explains how to configure a workflow to automatically create Google Workspace accounts. With this setup, you can automate routine tasks such as provisioning accounts on an employee’s start date. ※ Services that require creating an additional email address, such as Microsoft 365, follow the same steps.

Prerequisites

Confirm the following settings are complete before creating a workflow.

This service performs operations on behalf of the “Super Admin” account connected to Google Workspace.Because accounts outside the connected workspace cannot be created, you must connect each workspace individually.

Item	Description
Connect Google Workspace (the domain where you want to add accounts)	Go to Integrations > Integrations and connect the domain (workspace) where you want to add accounts. ※ If multiple domains are registered under a single workspace, this step is not required.
Mapping in the workflow	Go to Automation > Services > Connection Settings > [Add Connection] and confirm that the target Google Workspace domain is mapped in the “Add Service Connection” screen. ※ If multiple domains are registered under a single workspace, this step is not required.
Register directory information	Go to Directory > Directory Information and configure the following as the workflow trigger and account information.
Email address	Register the new email address to be created in Google Workspace. The address does not need to exist at this point. It will be activated in Google Workspace after the automation runs.
Employment start date	This serves as the reference date for when the automation runs (e.g., the employee’s start date).
Type	Used to filter the targets, such as full-time employees or contract employees.

Workflow Configuration

Go to Automation > [Create Automation] and create a Google Workspace “provision” workflow. See the related page for details. 3-1. Configure a Workflow for Employee Onboarding Also refer to the following page for an overview of how automation runs. 5. How Automation Runs

Notes

Domain mismatch The directory email address domain must match the domain configured in the prerequisites. Otherwise, an error occurs.
License count If the Google Workspace license limit has been reached, account creation will fail. Check the available license count in advance.
