Authentication#

Google Directory uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google Directory account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google Directory and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Google Directory API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.grouphttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.group.memberhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.userhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user.aliashttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.domain
