3.6 Configuring the Connector for Google Apps for Business

Each cluster supports only one Connector for Google Apps for Business. You must configure the Connector for Google Apps for Business to provision accounts into Google Apps for Business.

You can configure the connector to allow users single sign-on access into Google Apps for Business. When users log in to Active Directory, Access Gateway for Cloud automatically authenticates the users to Google Apps for Business. Providing single sign-on to the users increases the security of your company’s information stored in Google Apps for Business.

  1. Access the Access Gateway for Cloud administration page.

    For more information, see Section 3.1, Accessing the Administration Page.

  2. Drag and drop the Connector for Google Apps for Business from the SaaS Palette to the bar.

  3. Click the Connector for Google Apps for Business, then click Configure.

  4. Fill in the fields to configure the connector, then click OK to save the configuration information.

    Selecting the single sign-on option allows uses to authenticate to Active Directory, then Access Gateway for Cloud automatically authenticates the user’s login to Google Apps for Business.

  5. Click Apply to commit the changes to the appliance.

After you enable single sign-on, all users must authenticate through Access Gateway for Cloud to access Google Apps for Business. For more information, see the SAML SSO section of the Google Apps for Business FAQ.
