The steps in this guide require the Kami app to be deployed to your organization via the Google Admin Workspace. For more information and installation steps, refer to this guide.
Configure access to Kami via the Google Admin Workspace
1. Setting up API controls
Before we apply the authorization changes, we must verify that the API settings are correctly configured.
First, navigate to Security > Access and Data control > API controls in the left-hand panel.
Then, click anywhere in the Settings section to expand it.
Select Unconfigured third-party apps to expand this section.
Find the Settings for users under 18 permissions, and adjust this to the permission that best suits your organization's policies.
2. Confirm settings for configured third-party apps
After saving, you will be returned to the App access control page. Select Manage App Access.
Select the Apps Pending Review option. On the next page, use the search bar to type Kami. A drop-down option will appear to filter by App names containing "Kami".
🔍 If you can't see Kami under Apps Pending Review, it may already be under the Configured Apps. Check there and confirm that the app is configured as Trusted. (Note: There may be multiple Kami entries; ensure all are set to Trusted).
3. Configure Access for Kami
On the first page, you can configure the scope of whose access will be modified. All users in your domain will be selected by default; you can also select specific org units.
Once finished, select the Next button. On the next page, you can configure the Kami app's access to Google Data for the selected users.
Select Trusted, then select the Next button.

🔍 On rare occasions, a potential issue may arise relating to the traffic being blocked due to the domain's CAA (Context-Aware Access) policy, such as an "Invalid Authorization Code" error, when a user tries to load a document or log in to the Kami app.
We strongly recommend reviewing your CAA Log Events to investigate further. The exempt rule shown in the screenshot above can be used to confirm the issue's relation to the CAA policy and as a temporary fix.
Please contact us at support@kamiapp.com if this issue or a similar one occurs.
On the next page, review your changes, then select Change Access.
A pop-up window will open with the parental consent form. Read through this form, then select Confirm.
Once this is finished, you're all set! Your users' access has now been confirmed. Keep in mind that these changes may take some time to take effect.
