Find admin approved applications in the “Approved for you” section in the Google Workspace Marketplace
What’s changing
The new “Approved for You” section in the Google Workspace Marketplace allows users to quickly see and install applications that have been approved and allowlisted by their admins.
Who’s impacted
Admins and end users
Why it’s important
Admins can specify which third-party apps their users can install from the Google Workspace Marketplace. With the addition of the “Approved for you” section in the Marketplace, users can quickly find and install pre-approved apps for Gmail, Drive, Editors, Calendar, and more.
