Thanks Peter, but I'm not sure I'm following. I would like to address how the companies Google Ads, Firebase, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager account were all made with an email like mycomp...@gmail.com They were able to establish all of these environments and build atop of them without being required comply with the workspace requirement that emails are internal. They're all using mycomp...@gmail.com with no 'governing body,' so to speak.
So now we have all of these different tools under the email address mycomp...@gmail.com. If I want to link all of these under a governing body, like a workspace, and utilize the benefits of a workspace -- how can we do that without rebuilding everything over this email issue? I can't add mycomp...@gmail.com to the newly created workspace because its not an @mycompany.com email. -- Are you perhaps suggesting that I make some kind of manager account, say goo...@mycompany.com and link mycomp...@gmail.com to it? That's exactly what I tried doing with the workspace, but it would not allow this.
