GWS: How to add users in Google workspace

Add a user account to your Admin console

To complete these steps, you need the appropriate User management privilege. Without the correct privilege, you won't see all the controls needed to complete these steps.

  1. Sign in with an administrator account to the Google Admin console.

    If you aren’t using an administrator account, you can’t access the Admin console.

  2. Go to Menu Directory > Users.
  3. At the top of the user list, click Add new user.

  4. Add the user's account information (appears in Gmail contacts):
    • First and last name
    • Primary email—Accept or change the suggested name.
      If your organization has more than one domain, click the Down arrow  to the right of the @ sign and choose a domain. 
    • (Recommended) Secondary email—A current address where the user can receive their new account details.
    • (Optional) Phone number
  5. (Optional) Click Manage user’s password, organizational unit, and profile photo.
    • Organizational unit—If your users are grouped in organizational units, click Edit to select the one to add the user to.
    • Upload Profile photo—You can do this now or later.
    • Password—Select an available option.
  6. Click Add New User.
    Note: If you're prompted to fix a conflicting account.
  7. Choose an option to send account information to the new user:
    • Click Copy Password, for example, to send the user their password in a chat.
    • Click Preview And Send to email complete account details to the user's secondary email address or to another address, such as your own. 
  8. Click Done.
