Google Workspace Enterprise Connection with Extended Attributes "Groups" Default Value to Checked

Problem Statement

A Google Workspace Enterprise Connection is configured in a tenant, as described in Connect Your App to Google Workspace. However, the “Extended” / Groups attribute value is unchecked by default.

Symptoms

While creating the Google Workspace Enterprise Connection connection using Management API/Dashboard the default value of Groups was unchecked.

Cause

The default value for the ext_groups is false while creating the connection.

Solution

To get the Groups enabled by default under the extended attributes, use the Management API endpoint POST /api/v2/connections endpoint with the parameter “ext_groups” value set to true:

"options": {
"ext_groups": true
//Other parameters to be included as per the requirement for the Google Workspace Enterprise Connection
}
