Allow-listing the EmailShot add-on

Updated on

As a Google Workspace administrator, you might have configured the Google Workspace Marketplace policy to only allow users to install and run allowlisted apps for your organization. This article describes the process to ensure that users within your domain can install and use EmailShot without encountering any restrictions.

Note: our recommendation is to install the add-on domain wide instead of just allow-listing its installation. This way, you will ensure that every single user in your organization is able to easily create EmailShots without the need of performing separate and individual installations.

As a prerequisite, you must have administrative access to your Google Workspace domain.

Steps to Allowlist the Add-on:

  1. Log in to the Google Workspace Admin Console: Navigate to the Google Workspace Admin Console and sign in with your administrative credentials.
  2. Access the Google Workspace Marketplace apps Settings: In the Admin Console, go to the "Apps" section and select "Google Workspace Marketplace apps". Then, click on the "Apps list" tab.

After completing these steps, the add-on will be allowlisted for your Google Workspace domain. Users within your organization will now be able to install and use the add-on without encountering any restrictions.

By following these steps, you can effectively allowlist the installation of a Google Workspace add-on, like EmailShot, for your organization, ensuring that your users can share emails in just one click.
