If you get an error similar to the following:

We are sorry, but you do not have access to MakerSuite. Please contact your Organization Administrator for access.

when trying to access MakerSuite using your workspace account, you may need to enable Early Access apps in that account.

As an admin, you can control who uses Early Access apps:

  • Early Access apps are turned off by default for all editions.
  • The setting lets you turn all Early Access apps on or off. You can't turn on or off individual apps independently.
  • Google Workspace for Education editions: Users under the age of 18 are restricted from using Early Access apps with their Google Workspace for Education accounts. This is true even when the Early Access Apps setting is on. For details, go to Control access to Google services by age.
  • Early Access apps access to core services is also off by default.
