Automatic user provisioning from GWS to AAD

Question

Hello Everyone,
Our Company is Google Workspaces based. We want all users from GWS to be automatically created in the Entra ID. I found many articles about provisioning users from AAD to GWS but not from GWS to AAD. All of them tell us to use Google Cloud / G Suite Connector by Microsoft, which I connected but it asks to add users and groups (from Entra) so I believe it will sync users from Entra to GW. Could you please help me to figure out how this can be done?

Thank you

@KP Thank you for reaching out to us, As I understand you are trying to automatically provision users from Google Workspaces (GWS) to Azure Active Directory (AAD)/Entra ID. As far I am aware Microsoft Entra application provisioning refers to automatically creating user identities and roles in the applications that users need access to not the other way around.

Refer to these docs on how user provisioning works in Entra ID
