What does Rig sync from Google Workspace Directory?

One table of users, with manager, department, title, cost centre, org unit, suspended and archived flags and the account creation time. Last login time is off unless you tick it.

Does Rig use my Google login?

No. You create a service account in your own Google Cloud project and authorise it for one read-only scope in the Admin console, so the key stays with you.

Does it include phone numbers or addresses?

No. Rig asks Google only for the columns you select, so phones, addresses and recovery details are never requested.

How often does the directory refresh?

On the schedule you set. Each sync replaces the table, so a deleted account drops out of the directory.

Keep an accurate people directory

A people directory is the current list of who works where and who reports to whom. Rig reads every account with its manager, department, title and org unit, so headcount by team no longer depends on a spreadsheet.

Ask Rig

How many active accounts are in each department?
Who reports to each manager?
Which accounts have no manager set?

Find stale and suspended accounts

Suspended and archived accounts are the ones that no longer sign in but may still hold licences or access. Rig carries the suspended and archived flags, so you can reconcile accounts against your HR records.

Ask Rig

Which accounts are suspended right now?
How many archived accounts are still in the directory?
Which accounts were created in the last 90 days?

Join the directory to cost and usage data

Cost centres and departments are the keys that tie a person to a budget. With the directory beside finance and tool data in the warehouse, spend and usage can be grouped by the same teams.

Ask Rig

What is software spend per cost centre?
Which departments have the most accounts?
How does headcount by org unit compare with our HR system?

Ask your Google Workspace Directory data in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Rig serves your Google Workspace Directory data to AI assistants over MCP. Once Google Workspace Directory is synced into your warehouse, you can ask questions in plain English from the tool you already use, and every answer is backed by validated, governed SQL.
