You can connect Google Workspace to Circleback by creating a custom SAML app in the Google Workspace Admin Console.
You need access to manage apps in Google Admin and to be an admin of your Circleback workspace.
1. In Circleback, go to Settings → General (under Workspace).
2. Under Single sign-on, select Connect. Choose SAML, then select Continue. Keep this form open.
3. In another tab, open the Google Admin console and go to Apps → Web and mobile apps.
4. Select Add app → Add custom SAML app.
5. Enter Circleback as the app name, then select Continue.
6. On the Google identity provider details page, select Download Metadata.
7. In Circleback, under Metadata source, choose Upload XML file and upload the file you downloaded.
8. Return to Google Admin and select Continue.
9. Copy the ACS URL and Entity ID from the open Circleback form into Google's Service provider details page, and set the Name ID fields as shown below:
Field | Value |
ACS URL |
|
Entity ID |
|
Name ID format | |
Name ID | Basic Information → Primary email |
10. Select Continue, then add these attribute mappings:
Google Directory attribute | App attribute |
Primary email |
|
First name |
|
Last name |
|
11. Select Finish.
12. Open the Circleback app in Google Admin and select User access.
13. Turn the service on for everyone or for the organizational units that should use Circleback.
14. Select Save.
15. Return to the open Circleback form and select Continue. Leave No directory sync selected, then select Connect.
To require everyone in your workspace to log in with SSO, follow Enforce SSO for your workspace.
This setup connects sign-in, not SCIM provisioning. To revoke someone's workspace access, deactivate the member in Circleback.
