Google Workspace Professional Administrator — Question 82

You are the administrator for a 30,000-user organization. You have multiple Workspace licensing options available to end users in your domain, according to their work responsibilities. A user may be transitioned to a different license type multiple times in a given year. Your organization has a high turnover rate for employees. What is the most efficient way to manage your organization’s licensing?

Answer options

• A. Use the Directory API to create a custom batch script that modifies the users license on a daily basis.
• B. Create a license assignment rule in the Google Admin console to set user licensing based on directory attributes.
• C. Use Google Cloud Directory Sync to modify user licensing with each sync, according to information available in the organization’s LDAP.
• D. Update user licensing in the user portion of the Admin console on an as-needed basis.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because Google Cloud Directory Sync automates the process of updating user licenses based on the organization's LDAP information during each sync, making it efficient for a high turnover environment. Option A, while automated, requires daily intervention and may not be as reliable. Option B does not offer the same level of automation without LDAP integration. Option D is manual and not efficient for managing frequent changes.
