To use Google SSO, sync organizational units (OUs), or connect Google Classroom for GoGuardian Teacher, you must approve GoGuardian’s App IDs in Google Admin Console. This grants GoGuardian the OAuth access it needs to read Google Workspace data. Until each App ID is set to trusted, the integrations that depend on it will not work.

Review GoGuardian App IDs

Add each App ID in the table below when you complete the CSV upload. Each row maps to a specific integration. If you are unsure which integrations your organization uses, add all rows. Approving an unused App ID has no effect.
Copy App IDs using Ctrl+C (Windows) or Cmd+C (Mac). Do not right-click and select Copy Link Address or Copy Link to Highlight, as those actions copy a URL, not the App ID string. Enter each ID exactly as shown, with no http:// or https:// prefix.

Approve App Access via CSV Upload

  1. In Google Admin Console, go to Security > Access and data control > API controls > Manage Third-Party App Access.
  2. Click Bulk update list. If you prefer to add apps individually, click Configure new app and search for “GoGuardian” to add each App ID one at a time.
  3. Download the blank CSV template and open it in a spreadsheet application. For each App ID in the table above, add a row with the App ID value, set Type to web application, and set Access to trusted.
  4. Save the file and upload it to complete the bulk update.
  5. Confirm the upload completed without errors. Google Admin Console displays a confirmation when the file is processed successfully. If the upload returns errors, see Google’s bulk-upload error reference for a list of error codes and how to resolve them.
If you prefer not to use a CSV, you can approve each App ID individually from the Manage Third-Party App Access page. See Approve or block access to third-party apps in Google’s documentation for step-by-step instructions.

Confirm App Access Is Trusted

Use these steps to confirm that each App ID is set to trusted. Run this check after the initial setup, or when troubleshooting an OU sync failure or SSO error.
  1. Go to admin.google.com > Security > Access and data control > API controls > Manage Third-Party App Access.
  2. Enter the App ID you want to confirm in the search field and select the correct result.
  3. Click Access to Google data and confirm the access level is set to Trusted or Allow list exemption.
  4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each App ID in the table above.
  5. Each App ID shows Trusted or Allow list exemption in the access settings. GoGuardian integrations that depend on these App IDs (including SSO, OU sync, and Classroom) are now authorized to complete their OAuth handshake.
