# Select use cases

Integrate Google Workspace with DoControl to govern your Google Workspace security and boost your monitoring and remediation capabilities.

After you start the integration wizard, you need to select the relevant capabilities or use cases for your organization:

* **Google Workspace** **monitoring and remediation** - Detect and remediate overexposure and risky access events in Google Workspace. This is mandatory, and selected by default.
* **SPM misconfigurations** - See how your Google Workspace security settings measure up to compliance standards. This is mandatory, and selected by default.
* **Shadow apps (Premium)** - Discover all interconnected SaaS apps within your Google Workspace, and expose a full mapping and inventory of internal and 3rd party applications.

{% hint style="warning" %}

* Shadow Apps is a premium module. If you don't have a license, this use case will be grayed out.
* If you're an existing customer who's already integrated with Google Workspace and you wish to **upgrade** to the Shadow App module, follow the [re-integration steps](/docontrol-user-guide/integrations/integrations-google-drive/upgrade-to-shadow-apps.md).
  {% endhint %}

#### To start the Google Workspace integration wizard:

1. From the DoControl side menu, click **Integrations**.\

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.docontrol.io/docontrol-user-guide/integrations/integrations-google-drive/select-use-cases.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
