Overview
The University of Idaho University Communications and Marketing (UCM) and Office of Information Technology (OIT) have worked with the Office of General Counsel to sign-up for an officially approved Google Workspace for employee accounts. While the service is not generally supported, if you have a need for applications in Google, please fill out the form below.
Reminder:
- Approved file storage locations are documented here: https://support.uidaho.edu/TDClient/40/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=1670
- Google Drive cannot be used to store any University of Idaho data unless associated with an approved grant, project or application.
- It is no longer possible to enroll an @uidaho.edu account with Google via email. Enrollment email is automatically blocked.
Google Workspace Account Request
To request a Google Workspace Account, use this Microsoft Form: https://forms.office.com/r/jne1FnGvfp
Accounts take up to 40 minutes to be provisioned in the Google Workspace and will use your @uidaho.edu account credentials to sign-in. Information on the sign-in process is available here: https://support.uidaho.edu/TDClient/40/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=2464
Google Workspace Details
- The University of Idaho Google Workspace has been configured with federation so employees, who have been granted access, will use their @uidaho.edu account and password to sign in.
- Self-service creation of new Google accounts with an @uidaho.edu email address has been disabled. Creating a new Google account with any @uidaho.edu address must be done through the form linked above.
- If you already have a Google account that ends in @uidaho.edu, you may be required to transfer it to the University of Idaho's Google Workspace. See How to transfer your Google account?
