Google Workspace Setup

If your company uses Google Workspace, you can enable access via Xiid's SSO Portals.

Xiid IM Configuration

  • Start by signing in to the Xiid Agent Management Portal and navigating to the Applications tab.
  • On the Applications screen, click the purple Choose button under GSuite.
  • On the Application List for Google screen, click the purple + Add Application button.
  • From the Add Google Application Information screen, select the SSO Portal(s) you would like to assign Google Workspace access to.
  • Provide a description of the application for your personal reference, then click the Next button.
  • For the Parameters section, enter the full name of your domain tied to your Google Workspace account.
  • Review the information provided and click the purple Save button.

Don't close out of the Agent Management Portal yet – keep it open, as you'll need some of this information during configuration on Google's end.
