Creating the asset integration

Creating custom mappings

Before you start

The Google Workspace mobile device asset load retrieves a list of all user-owned mobile devices for an account. 

The Google mobile devices REST API uses OAuth-based authentication. Instructions on setting up a Google Workspace OAuth2 App and adding your credentials to the Oomnitza vault can be found here: Adding Google (OAuth 2.0) credentials.

When adding your credentials, make sure that you use one of the following scopes:

• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.device.mobile
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.device.mobile.action
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.device.mobile.readonly

For more information see Google API Documentation: mobiledevices.list
