Google Auto User Provisioning enables IT admins to automatically provision G Suite users into RingCentral. This simplifies user management between G Suite and RingCentral. When IT admin creates/modifies/deletes users in G Suite they are correspondingly updated in their RingCentral service. Additionally from user perspective, they will see their auto-provisioned G Suite colleagues in RingCentral Apps and can call or message them.
This article will guide on steps required to enable Google Auto User Provisioning (Google Cloud Directory) in your RingCentral account.
IMPORTANT: You will need to call
RingCentral Customer Support first to enable this feature in your RingCentral account.
