Auto Approve M365/Google Users

Stop approving users manually by enabling the Auto-Approve feature to automatically approve users inside a specific M365 or Google group.

How to Enable the Auto-Approve Feature

By default, the Auto-Approve feature is OFF when an Entra ID or Google sync is connected to Symbol Security. To enable it for a company, admins must navigate to the list of users pending approval and choose the option to view pending users as Groups.

Once admins are in the groups list, they can enable the Auto-Approve feature in two different states:

When the group is pending

If a synced group is pending approval, admins will see Approve and Deny buttons next to the group. When they click Approve , the app will prompt them to confirm whether they want to enable Auto-Approve for future users added to that specific group.

By choosing Yes, enable auto-approve , the app will approve all users currently in the group and turn on the Auto-Approve setting for future users added through the sync.

When the group has already been approved

If a synced group has already been approved, it will appear in the groups list with a message indicating that the group does not have users pending approval. The Auto-Approve switch will be shown next to the group so admins can enable or disable it as needed.

The Auto-Approve feature can be deactivated at any time by clicking the switch or checkbox next to the group name.

From the groups list, admins can also search for groups by name, browse groups across multiple pages, and choose how many items to display per page.
