Signing in with Google,and what to do when it acts up.
Google sign-in is the fastest way into your workspace — no password to remember, and your account is protected by whatever security you already have on Google. Here's the exact flow, then fixes for every error we see.
One-click retries
Each button applies one common fix and starts the sign-in again. Work top to bottom — most people are back in after the first or second.
Still stuck after all four? Use email or phone sign-in instead — you can link Google to the same account later from your security settings.
The five-step flow
Each step shows an illustration of the screen you should be looking at — match it to your own screen to see where you are in the flow.
