Google has recently launched some more administrative features in Google Apps which will help administrators of large companies in managing users easily.
In a small businesses who use Google Apps, it is easy for administrators to help employees configure user settings account-by-account. But this approach was not appropriate for larger companies having users in excess of hundres. I have seen difficulty my clients are facing - when they have close to thousand users.
Google is now offering a streamlined way for admins to configure account settings is essential for its users. For this Google has launched Google Email Settings API, for Premier and Education Edition.
Using Google Email Settings APIs administrators can programmatically update Gmail settings for their users in bulk by making requests to a GData feed. The imporatnt modifiable settings are:
- labels
- filters
- signatures
- vacation responders
- "send mail as" aliases
- interface language
- email forwarding
- POP
- IMAP
