Map and sync system attributes of users from External Directory into Google Workspace

What’s changing 

Using Directory Sync, admins can map all the system or default user attributes, including custom attributes, from Microsoft Active Directory or Microsoft Azure Active Directory to Google Directory user attributes and synchronize them. These attributes include first and last names, job title, company, and department. The detailed list of attributes supported can be found in the Help Center. Based on these attribute values, Directory Sync will automatically map the users with the attributes provided from the Active Directory or Azure Active Directory on the Google Workspace side.
