Google Workspace Professional Administrator — Question 40
You act as the Google Workspace Administrator for a company that has just acquired another organization. The acquired company will be migrated into your Workspace environment in 6 months. Management has asked you to ensure that the Google Workspace users you currently manage can efficiently access rich contact information in Workspace for all users. This needs to occur before the migration, and optimally without additional expenditure. What step do you take to populate contact information for all users?
Answer options
- A. Bulk-upload the contact information for these users via CSV into the Google Directory.
- B. Use the Domain Shared Contacts API to upload contact information for the acquired company's users.
- C. Provision and license Google Workspace accounts for the acquired company's users because they will need accounts in the future.
- D. Prepare an uploadable file to be distributed to your end users that allows them to add the acquired company’s user contact information to their personal contacts.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B because using the Domain Shared Contacts API allows for efficient integration of the acquired company's user contacts into your existing Google Workspace without incurring additional costs. Option A is incorrect as bulk-uploading via CSV may not provide the same seamless integration, while C is unnecessary until the migration is closer. Option D requires manual effort from users, which is less efficient than using the API.
