In the Virtual Appliance based Google Workspace connector, we are using account.filterString to exclude Service and Domain accounts in the accoun aggregation. We attempted to do this with the SaaS connector, but the filter isn’t working. Is account.filterString not being implemented for this connector?

If you are looking for future enhancements on this connector, it would be great if there could be a configuration setting to exclude Service Accounts.

Hi @Carlatto,

The current account filtering option in the source configuration, which is present in the VA based connector is also available in this SaaS Connector.

For more information, refer to Advanced Settings.

This filtering is applicable to the fields mentioned in this Google Doc - جستجو برای کاربران  |  Admin console  |  Google for Developers.

Looks like there is no OOTB way for filtering the Service and Domain accounts, and you are using product level filtering option via account.filterString. Can you please share on which parameter you are applying filter?

Thanks,
Dinesh
