Managing API controls in your Google Workspace ensures teachers and staff can export content to Google Docs and Slides, upload documents to SchoolAI from Google Drive, and use the SchoolAI Chrome extension.
How to Update Your API Controls
Navigate to your Google Admin Console
Select "Security"
Go to "Access and data control"
Choose "API controls"
Select "Manage third-party app access"
Click "Configure new app"
Search for SchoolAI. Select the app with the client ID that begins with 624. Click Add.
Repeat this process for the second SchoolAI-related app with the client ID that begins with 190 (used for Google Drive uploads). Click Add.
Mark both apps as "Trusted" within your organization.
Note: Both client IDs must be added and trusted — the 624 app covers exporting to Docs/Slides and the Chrome extension, while the 190 app covers uploading documents to SchoolAI from Google Drive. Missing either one will cause that specific feature to fail.
If your teachers or staff are receiving the error message "this app is blocked" after re-configuring your API controls, please reach out to SchoolAI support for assistance.
