Overview
Admins use security settings to manage authentication and domain-based access controls. Login method changes affect how teammates access the workspace. Coordinate changes before enforcing restrictions. Go to Settings > Security.| Access control | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Google login | Let members authenticate with Google. |
| Domain verification | Prove ownership of a domain. |
| Allowed domains | Restrict access to approved domains. |
| Connected accounts | Attach external identities to users. |
Authentication settings
Authentication settings protect workspace access.Google login
Google login lets members authenticate with a Google account when enabled. This is useful when your organization already uses Google identity for work accounts.Connected accounts
Connected accounts attach external identities to a user account. Connected accounts can also power app integrations, but they are not the same as workspace-level integration settings.Domain verification
Domain verification helps prove that your organization owns a domain. Domain verification may be required before enforcing domain-based access rules.Access restrictions
Access restrictions help control who can join or authenticate.Allowed domains
Allowed domains limit access to approved company domains. Use allowed domains carefully. If a teammate uses a different email domain, they may be blocked from joining or signing in.Admin-only settings
Security and login method changes are admin-level settings. Non-admins should contact a workspace admin when they cannot access login method settings.Test domain and login changes with an admin account before enforcing restrictions broadly.
