Google does this behind the scenes, you can't manually display/manager it.

$ gam info group classroom_teachers

Group: classroom...@auroraschool.org

  Group Settings:

    id: 01jlao461drp3rk

    name: Classroom Teachers

    description: This group includes all Classroom teachers in your domain. Users who say they are teachers are added as pending members until you approve. Note that members of this group have additional privileges, which you can control in the Admin Console. WARNING: Do not delete this group.

Hey Ross,

Unfortunately, the classroom_teachers group was deleted earlier today and of course immediately recreated as an empty group. A Google Workspace support article includes this statement:

"To populate the Classroom Teachers group directly, admins can use Google APIs. Some admins may choose to use Google Apps Manager (GAM). GAM is a command-line tool for admins to manage Google Workspace domains and to automate the teacher verification process."

But doesn't explain how to use GAM to automate the teacher verification process. I am hoping that Google Classroom's still work, so far two teachers have accessed their post-deletion Classrooms without any issues. I am sure there will be many more problems tomorrow that I am unaware of and will discover tomorrow.

Rick

Rick,

Send me a Meet/Zoom invitation and we'll investigate.
