Replicate Google Workspace users into Azure AD

Question

We are a Google-based company, but need to leverage Azure AD for windows MDM via Intune and for use as a WebEx platform.

To that end, we need to replicate our Google Workspace user objects into Azure AD, synchronize those directories at regular intervals, and (this is the important part) maintain Google as our source of truth and primary IDP.

We've spent months working with CDW and SecureData with nothing to show for it. Does anybody have insight on how we could achieve this?

Hi @Lucas Corey-Yares ,

You can perform a Google Workspace migration to Azure AD as described here, though there isn't a straightforward way to maintain a continuous sync with Google being the source of truth. There is a third party guide here that goes step-by-step through the process of setting up Google Workspace SSO to Office 365.

One option would be to download a list of users list CSV file from Google Workspace then bulk add the Azure AD users.

We also have this guide for configuring Microsoft 365 for SAML IDP and using Google Workspace as the IDP, which sounds like might be necessary in your scenario.

Let me know if this helps. If you can provide more details about the steps that you have tried and the difficulties you have faced, I should be able to better assist.

Thanks,

Marilee
