Google (Workspace) Directory is, simply put, a user management system for Google Workspace. It allows IT admins to manage users’ access, facilitates and governs user sign-ons, and, ultimately, is meant to enable users to sign in to multiple Google services through one Google identity. Other features include the ability to monitor devices connected to a business’s domain, manage organizations’ structures, audit applications to which users have approved access, and revoke unauthorized apps.
For huge analytical tables, Apache Iceberg is a high-performance format. Using Apache Iceberg, engines such as Spark, Trino, Flink, Presto, Hive and Impala can safely work with the same tables, at the same time, providing the reliability and simplicity of SQL tables to big data. With Apache Iceberg, you can merge new data, update existing rows, and delete specific rows. Data files can be eagerly rewritten or deleted deltas can be used to make updates faster.

6. Click on "New Source" and select "Google Directory" from the list of available connectors.
7. Enter a name for the source and click "Next".
8. Upload the JSON key file downloaded earlier and enter the email address associated with the service account.
9. Enter the domain name for the Google Workspace account you want to connect to.
10. Click "Test Connection" to ensure the credentials are valid and the connection is successful.
11. Select the tables you want to replicate and configure any additional settings.
12. Click "Create Source" to save the configuration and start the replication process.
1. Open the Airbyte platform and navigate to the "Destinations" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
2. Click on the "Apache Iceberg" destination connector and select "Create new connection."
3. Enter a name for your connection and provide the necessary credentials for your Apache Iceberg database, including the host, port, database name, username, and password.
4. Test the connection to ensure that it is successful. 5. Select the tables or data sources that you want to replicate to your Apache Iceberg database.
6. Configure any additional settings or options for your connection, such as the frequency of data replication or any transformations that you want to apply to your data.
7. Save your connection and start the replication process.
8. Monitor the progress of your data replication and troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
9. Once the replication process is complete, verify that your data has been successfully replicated to your Apache Iceberg database.
10. Use your Apache Iceberg database to analyze and query your data as needed.
With Airbyte, creating data pipelines take minutes, and the data integration possibilities are endless. Airbyte supports the largest catalog of API tools, databases, and files, among other sources. Airbyte's connectors are open-source, so you can add any custom objects to the connector, or even build a new connector from scratch without any local dev environment or any data engineer within 10 minutes with the no-code connector builder.
We look forward to seeing you make use of it! We invite you to join the conversation on our community Slack Channel, or sign up for our newsletter. You should also check out other Airbyte tutorials, and Airbyte’s content hub!
