Truto’s Google OAuth application has successfully cleared Google’s Cloud Application Security Assessment (CASA) Tier 2 and is officially live on production.

This means teams can connect Google Workspace to Truto using a fully verified OAuth app, without limitations on the number of connections, unverified warnings, or additional approval steps from Google.

What this means for our customers

With our verified Google OAuth app, customers can securely connect:

• Google Drive

• Google Docs

• Gmail

• Google Calendar

• Google Forms

• Google Contacts

• Google Meet, and

• Google Admin Directory

Connections can be made using admin-level authorization, enabling visibility into users, groups, roles, and directory-level metadata where applicable.

Most importantly, customers do not need to undergo any Google verification themselves. The entire security and compliance burden is handled by Truto.

What CASA Tier 2 actually means

Google CASA Tier 2 is a deep security assessment covering:

• Architecture and data flow reviews

• Secure storage, OAuth implementation, and token handling

• Infrastructure and operational security controls

• Access control and least-privilege design

• Incident response and vulnerability management

We worked closely with TAC Security and Google through a long, detailed, and expensive assessment process to ensure Truto meets Google’s highest standards for third-party OAuth applications.

The outcome for customers is multi-fold: 

• No need to spend months navigating additional verification or approval processes with Google

• No internal budgeting or certification approval cycles

• No need to spend weeks building and maintaining a Google Workspace integration from scratch

What data can Truto access

Below is a breakdown of the scopes we request and why they exist.

Identity and authentication

Used only to identify the connected user and establish a secure OAuth session.

• User email address

• Basic profile information

• OpenID authentication context

Google Drive and Docs

Used for file discovery, metadata access, and document workflows.

• Drive read-only access

• Drive labels read-only

• Google Docs access, explicitly scoped to document content

Gmail

Used for reading messages where email integrations are enabled.

• Gmail read-only

Calendar and Meetings

Used for calendar visibility, scheduling, and availability checks.

• Calendar lists and calendars

• Calendar events

• Public calendar events (read-only)

• Google Meet space (read-only)

Contacts

Used to enrich user and contact profiles.

• Contacts (read-only)

• Other contacts (read-only)

Forms

Used to understand form structure and ingest responses for downstream workflows.

• Forms structure (read-only)

• Forms responses (read-only)

Admin Directory

Used only when admin-level visibility is required, such as access reviews, audits, or user directory syncs.

• Users directory

• Groups and group membership

• Role management (read-only)

• User security metadata

If your business requires a Google scope that is not listed above, let us know. We support adding new scopes on request and will work with Google through the required approval process before making them available.

Our approach to permissions

A few principles guide how we request scopes:

• Read-only wherever possible

• No broad “full access” scopes

• Every permission is tied to a concrete Unified API feature

• Admin scopes are only used when explicitly required

If a customer does not need a specific capability, that scope is simply not used.

What’s next

The Google OAuth integration is now live and available to all Truto customers.

If you are already using Truto, you can connect to Google Workspace immediately. If you want help enabling the integration or need a scope walkthrough for your security team, reach out to us anytime.

If you are evaluating Truto, this removes a major OAuth and security blocker from day one. You can schedule a quick consultation on how Truto can help you integrate 500+ applications.

Here are some potential use cases teams can now explore with our support for Google Workspace integrations with a read-to-use OAuth app:

User and access visibility across Google Workspace
Sync users, groups, roles, and security signals from Google Admin Directory into internal systems for audits, access reviews, and identity management workflows.

• Document and file discovery for internal tools and AI workflows
  Securely index Google Drive files and Google Docs metadata to power search, knowledge discovery, and AI assistants without exposing write access.

• Email and calendar insights for operational workflows
  Read Gmail and Calendar data to automate reporting, activity timelines, or operational analytics while respecting scoped, read-only permissions.

• Form response ingestion and downstream automation
  Pull Google Forms structures and responses into data pipelines, CRMs, or internal tools for lead intake, surveys, and operational workflows.

• Cross-tool context enrichment for support and CRM systems
  Enrich tickets, CRM records, or internal dashboards with relevant Google Workspace context such as documents, meetings, and directory metadata.
