Perform a manual synchronization

You can perform a manual synchronization at any time using Configuration Manager in Google Apps Directory Sync (GADS).

Before you perform a manual synchronization, verify at the simulation stage that all of the changes are in line with the updates required for your Google Apps domain. For example, make sure the sync doesn't delete users that should remain active, or create LDAP-only groups that you don't want synchronized to Google Apps.
  1. Open Configuration Manager.
  2. Click Sync.
  3. Verify that all the required information is entered and click Simulate sync.
  4. Check the simulated data and ensure it meets your sync requirements.
  5. Click Sync & apply changes.

You can set up automatic scheduling for future synchronizations.

You should monitor all synchronizations by checking for any notification messages on a regular basis. See Set your notifications for more information.
