Cloud Edge Secure Access Getting Started Guide

Google Apps (SAML 2.0)

This article describes the two ways to set Google Suite as your identity provider: using Google Service or using Google SAML applications.

  • Configuring Google Suite as your IdP using SAML
  • Configuring SonicWall

When choosing one over the other please keep in mind:

  • While (at the moment) a SAML integration does not lead to any additional costs on Google's side, applying this configuration using Google Services may increase your Google Suite pricing, depending on your Google customer tier.
  • A SAML integration enables you to force all users to authenticate using Google Suite, as opposed to setting up a Google Service which is more flexible and can be applied to particular groups of users only.
