Glossary

Provisioned User

A user account that has been created in the Google Workspace admin console or via Google Workspace Directory Sync.

Publish Pages

When you create and edit your web pages, you need to publish or upload the page to the web so that it can be seen.

Rapid release track

Google Workspace users receive new features and updates automatically, without needing to install or update software, however you can still control when new features become available for users. The rapid release track allows users to access new features as soon as Google rolls them out to consumer users. These features have been through testing and quality assurance, but users will see them at the same time administrators do, before administrators have a chance to evaluate them for their organization.

SaaS

Is an acronym for "software as a service". SaaS is a software distribution model in which software applications are hosted by a vendor or service provider and made available to customers over a network. It's software delivered on a pay-as-you-go basis as a utility (like electricity) over a network (typically the Internet).

Scheduled release track

Google Workspace users receive new features and updates automatically, without needing to install or update software, however you can still control when new features become available for users. The scheduled release track delays the release of new features to users, giving administrators extra time to train support staff and prepare users for the coming changes. Google releases features to the scheduled release track on Tuesdays only, at least one week after the feature was released to the rapid release track.

Single Sign-on API

SAML-based Single Sign-On (SSO) provides full control over the authorization and authentication of user accounts that access web based applications (like GMail or Calendar). Available to Google Workspace only.
