Connecting Wave to Google Workspace

In this article, we will provide a step-by-step walkthrough on setting up our direct integration with Google Workspace. This integration allows you to instantly sync the users from your Google Workspace to Wave. Please note that the user sync is one-way from Google Workspace to Wave and not vice versa.

This integration will automatically connect the following fields, with no additional configuration needed:

  • First Name

  • Last Name

  • Email

  • Job Title

  • Phone Number

  • Location

Authenticating into Your Google Workspace Account

  1. Login to your Wave user account.

  2. Switch to the organization dashboard.

  3. Go to Settings, then click on Integrations.

  4. Click on the 'Connect' button.

  5. A pop-up will open, allowing you to turn on user auto sync between your Wave and Google Workspace accounts. We recommend leaving this on. Press 'Continue.' A new tab will open asking you to authenticate your Google Workspace account.

  6. Provide your Google Workspace credentials in the fields provided. Press 'Log In.'

Note: The account you authenticate must be a Google Workspace administrative account to ensure your integration works properly.

  1. After reviewing the permission prompt, grant Google Workspace access to your Wave account data. You will now be re-directed to your Wave account.

Congratulations 🎉, you have successfully integrated Google Worspace in your Wave account.
