# Set up Google SSO for 8x8 Admin Console

Users connect to their 8x8 account via Google ID. See [Identity mapping](/documentation/docs/set-up-single-sign-on-for-8x8-admin-console#identity-mapping) on the [Set up Single Sign-On for 8×8 Admin Console](/documentation/docs/set-up-single-sign-on-for-8x8-admin-console) page and [Configure Federation ID or Google ID in user records](/documentation/docs/configure-federation-id-or-google-id-in-user-records).

## Prerequisites

All Google-side settings must be configured within your Google Workspace account according to Google's documentation. The procedures described here apply strictly to the 8x8 setup.

> [!NOTE]
> Note:
> 
> You can configure only one Google provider per account.

## Add Google in 8x8 Admin Console

1. Sign in to 8x8 Admin Console.
2. Go to **Home** > You can configure only one Google provider per account..
3. Enable Single Sign-On (SSO).
4. Click **+ Add SSO**.
5. In the **Add a new Single Sign-On (SSO) integration** window, complete the following settings:
  1. Select **Google** as the identity provider.
  2. Optional: Turn on **Set this provider as default**.
  3. Under **Label your provider**, provide a distinct descriptive name for this provider. This label identifies the provider when admins assign it to users, so clear names prevent confusion.
  4. Google does not require any additional configuration settings.
6. Click **Add**.
7. Click **Save** on the **Identity and Security** page.
