What’s changing
Using Directory Sync, admins can automatically replace the domain name for synced users and groups in their Google cloud directory. This means synced Google users and groups can have a different domain name than the domain used in the external directory following a sync.
Verified domain names within your Google Workspace account can be used to replace user and group domain names. Admins can specify whether the domain change will occur for:
- Newly synced users and groups
- New and previously synced users and groups
Directory Sync is available as an open beta, meaning no sign-up is required. Use our Help Center to learn more about using Directory Sync and FAQs.
Getting started
- Admins: To use the Directory Sync, go to Admin console > Home > Directory > Directory Sync. Visit the Help Center to learn more about replacing the domain name for your synced users.
- End users: No end user impact
