* Role required: admin
{#config-g-docs-application__ul_hgz_1yw_pxb}

### About this task

Complete these steps from your Google G Suite account. See the G Suite product documentation for instructions on creating and configuring custom applications.

### Procedure

1. Register a new custom application.
   1. Navigate to <https://console.developers.google.com>.
   2. Create a project with your G Suite administrator credentials.
   3. Open the project.
   {#config-g-docs-application__substeps_rtl_4yk_lyb}
2. Set the Authorized domain.
   1. From the APIs \& Services menu, select OAuth consent screen.
   2. Enter the application name.
   3. Specify the Authorized domain <kbd class="ph userinput">service-now.com</kbd>.
   4. Click Save.
   {#config-g-docs-application__substeps_gbt_ryk_lyb}
3. Search for the Google Docs API and enable it.
4. Create the OAuyth client ID.
   1. From the APIs \& Services menu, select Credentials.
   2. Select Create OAuth client ID from the Create credentials list.

   This redirect URI must match the Redirect URL you provide when you configure a connection for the Google Docs spoke.
