# GoogleAppsSettings

Represents the settings for Google Apps in Salesforce.

This type extends the [Metadata](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/metadata.htm "The base class for all metadata types. You can’t edit this object. A component is an instance of a metadata type.") metadata type and inherits its fullName field.

In the package manifest, all organization settings metadata types are accessed using the Settings name. See [Settings](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_settings.htm "Represents the organization settings related to a feature. For example, your password policies, session settings and network access controls are all available in the SecuritySettings component type.") for details.

## File Suffix and Directory Location

A GoogleAppsSettings component file has the suffix .settings and is stored in the settings directory. The .settings files are different from other named components because there’s only one settings file for each settings component.

## Version

GoogleAppsSettings components are available in API version 46.0 and later.

## Declarative Metadata Sample Definition

The following is an example of a GoogleAppsSettings component.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<GoogleAppsSettings xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <enableGmailButtons\>false</enableGmailButtons\>
    <enableGmailButtonsAndLinks\>false</enableGmailButtonsAndLinks\>
    <enableGmailLinks\>false</enableGmailLinks\>
    <enableGoogleDocs\>false</enableGoogleDocs\>
    <enableGoogleDocsTab\>false</enableGoogleDocsTab\>
    <enableGoogleTalk\>false</enableGoogleTalk\>
    <googleAppsDomain\>example.com</googleAppsDomain\>
    <googleAppsDomainLinked\>false</googleAppsDomainLinked\>
    <googleAppsDomainValidated\>false</googleAppsDomainValidated\>
</GoogleAppsSettings\>

## Example Package Manifest

The following is an example package manifest used to deploy or retrieve the Google Apps settings metadata for an organization:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
	<types\>
		<members\>GoogleApps</members\>
		<name\>Settings</name\>
	</types\>
	<version\>46.0</version\>
</Package\>

## Wildcard Support in the Manifest File

The wildcard character \* (asterisk) in the package.xml manifest file doesn’t apply to metadata types for feature settings. The wildcard applies only when retrieving all settings, not for an individual setting. For details, see [Settings](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.264.0.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_settings.htm). For information about using the manifest file, see [Deploying and Retrieving Metadata with the Zip File](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.264.0.api_meta.meta/api_meta/file_based_zip_file.htm).
