  1. Log in to your Google Apps Admin Console (at https://www.google.com/a/domain-name) and verify that the following APIs are enabled:

    • Admin SDK API

    • Enterprise License Manager API

    For more information on these APIs, navigate to the Google Developers interface, and search for these APIs.

  2. Use the OAuth 2.0 Installed Application flow to obtain a client_secrets.json file.

  3. Download the Google Apps connector bundle

  4. Change to the directory where you have downloaded the bundle and run the following command on the client_secrets.json file that you obtained earlier in this procedure:

    Code Block
    $ mkdir googleapps
    $ cd googleapps
    $ jar xvf ../net.tirasa.connid.bundles.googleapps-1.4.0.jar
    $ java -jar ../net.tirasa.connid.bundles.googleapps-1.4.0.jar /path/to/client_secrets.json
    Please open the following address in your browser:
    https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?
    access_type=offline
    ...

    This command opens the default browser, and loads a screen on which you authorize consent to access the Google Apps account.

    titleTip

    If you have recently created your Google Apps account, it might take some time (often two hours or more) to synchronize the data required for this access request to work. For additional information, refer to the Google documentation noted earlier.

     

  5. When you have authorized consent, the browser returns a code. Copy and paste the code into the terminal from which you ran the original command.

    Code Block
    $ Attempting to open that address in the default browser now...
    Please enter code:
    XXXXXXXX

    A response similar to the following is returned: 

    Code Block
    languagejs
    {
        "clientId" : "5x4x3x4x0x8x-cxlx3xsxcx8xixlxmx3x0xrxgx7x6x3x.apps.googleusercontent.com",
        "clientSecret" : "0xhx9xrx8xdxqx9xDxjxUx3x",
        "refreshToken" : "1x7xmxfx_yxuxNxUxFxjxVxVxkxXx3XxHxMxYxzx5xcxI"
    }
