Thanks. I couldn't find anything titled "Settings for Early Access Apps" or "Core Data Access Permissions," but I did enable "Early Access Apps" and was told to wait 24 hours, which I guess is a cooling-off period or something, because I can't imagine that could be a caching policy.

And as another commenter predicted, searching the admin console for "Bard" turns up no settings.

Thanks for this! I think this is a new setting. If you go into Early Access Apps, you can enable the Core Data Access Permissions, but it's not clear what this actually enables.

Here is the URL for this and it specifically mentions Bard:

https://apps.google.com/supportwidget/articlehome?hl=en&arti...

You need to click into "Early Access Apps" from the services list, which takes you to the service's settings page.

Did that and I still don't have access... is there more to do or is there just some random wait?

EDIT: it's working now, took about 10 minutes.

I think that simply enabling "Early Access Apps" isn't enough. Once you enabled this, you need to add a checkmark to signal that you "Allow users at your organization to access Google Workspace data and services using Early Access Apps".

In my case enabling these two things was nearly instantaneous, it told me it will take a couple of minutes (located in Germany).

A sibling comment to this one contains the link to the help.

Sorry for not providing the direct link to the setting. Even though my domain name was not in the URL, there was a long number in it which might be personalized (albeit with a very low probability of this being the case).

THANKS!! Thanks for that, seems to have done the trick for me too.

it did? not for me on my admin workspace account--how long did it take? :/

Took me about 20 minutes.

Maybe 5 minutes? I did have to wait a little bit, but didn't feel like long.

I am so annoyed that Google Fi is available but was just disabled by default in these same setting.

My entire family has been using custom secondary gmail accounts JUST TO USE GOOGLE FI.
