8. Click Continue.
9.  (Optional) Restrict provisioning to specific groups:
   1. Enter all or part of a group name in the Search groups field.
      A list of available groups appears. Select a group to add it and open a new search field.

    • When an app is turned off for the user, delete their account after [number of days].
    • When a user is suspended on Google, delete their account after [number of days].

    Tip: Always set more time before hard deleting a user's account than for suspending a user's account.

    Note: The activation slider is disabled if Smartsheet isn’t turned on for any users. Click User access and turn the app on to enable the slider.

Once provisioning is on, Google starts collecting usage information. You'll see the usage information in the Auto-provisioning section. There won't be any numbers next to the event names until you enable provisioning.

The following event names provide the usage information for the last 30 days:

• Users created
• Users suspended
• Users deleted
• Failures

For more information, see Monitor automated user provisioning.

You may want to restrict the scope of provisioning to members of groups you define.

The next time you edit provisioning scope, the groups you added appear in the Provisioning scope window. If you turned on the Smartsheet application for a set of organizational units, the provisioning scope is restricted to those users in the added groups who are also members of those organizations.
