This document contains Email Audit API-specific authorization and
authentication information. Before reading this document, be sure to read the
Google Workspace's general authentication and authorization information at
Learn about authentication and authorization.
To define the level of access granted to your app, you need to identify and
declare authorization scopes. An authorization scope is an OAuth 2.0 URI string
that contains the Google Workspace app name, what kind of data it accesses, and
the level of access. Scopes are your app's requests to work with Google Workspace data, including
users' Google Account data.
When your app is installed, a user is asked to validate the scopes used
by the app. Generally, you should choose the most narrowly focused scope
possible and avoid requesting scopes that your app doesn't require. Users more
readily grant access to limited, clearly described scopes.
The Groups Settings API supports the following scopes:
[[["Easy to understand","easyToUnderstand","thumb-up"],["Solved my problem","solvedMyProblem","thumb-up"],["Other","otherUp","thumb-up"]],[["Missing the information I need","missingTheInformationINeed","thumb-down"],["Too complicated / too many steps","tooComplicatedTooManySteps","thumb-down"],["Out of date","outOfDate","thumb-down"],["Samples / code issue","samplesCodeIssue","thumb-down"],["Other","otherDown","thumb-down"]],["Last updated 2024-12-19 UTC."],[[["This document provides authorization and authentication details specifically for the Email Audit API, recommending prior review of general Google Workspace authentication information."],["Developers need to configure OAuth 2.0, including setting up the consent screen, choosing scopes, and registering the application for potential publishing."],["Authorization scopes are crucial for defining app access levels, with narrower, clearly defined scopes encouraged for better user acceptance."],["The `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/apps.groups.settings` scope allows applications to view and manage Google Groups settings."],["Public applications using specific scopes may require verification, prompting developers to submit a verification request if they see \"unverified app\" during testing."]]],[]]
