Google Groups

Google Groups is part of Google Workspace, providing email-based group communication, collaboration, and access control for teams and organizations. Google Groups lets you create mailing lists, manage membership, and control permissions for both internal and external users.

This page explains how you can use Sim to automate the management of Google Groups in your workflows. With Sim, agents can create and configure groups, add or remove members, update group settings, and keep directory lists up-to-date automatically—ideal for onboarding workflows, syncing IT systems, or dynamically managing project teams.

With Google Groups, you can:

• Centralize communications: Create team or project mailing lists for group conversations
• Manage group membership: Add, remove, or update members with granular roles (owner, manager, member)
• Control access: Manage who can view, post, or join; set permissions for public/private visibility
• Collaborate across teams: Streamline communication and document sharing via group-based access
• Automate IT tasks: Use Sim to keep group memberships current as teams change

In Sim, the Google Groups integration gives your agents API-driven control to automate common administrative tasks. Connect directly to your Google Workspace domain to add users to groups, manage lists, audit group settings, and ensure your organization’s access controls are always up-to-date—without manual overhead.

Usage Instructions
