Deploy Attendance Tracker Across Your School or District

A complete guide for Google Workspace administrators: how to force-install Attendance Tracker for specific Organizational Units (OUs), configure OAuth permissions safely, and provision domain-wide licensing.

Zero Client-Side Maintenance: Unlike browser extensions that require Chrome policy sideloading and break after Chrome or Meet updates, Attendance Tracker is an official Google Workspace Marketplace Add-on. Deploying it via Admin Console instantly provisions it for your teachers inside Google Meet on Chromebooks, Macs, Windows, and Linux.

Step-by-Step: Admin Console Installation

Step 1

Access Google Workspace Admin Console

Step 2

Navigate to Marketplace Apps

From the main admin navigation menu, go to:

Apps → Google Workspace Marketplace apps → Apps list

Click Add app to Admin Install list (or Domain Install).

Step 3

Search for Attendance Tracker

In the Marketplace search bar, type: Attendance Tracker for Google Meet

Select the verified app published by Attendance Tracker (App ID: 829771833968), and click Admin install → Continue.

Step 4

Target Specific Organizational Units (OUs)

You can choose who has access to the add-on:

Specific organizational units: Highly recommended. Select your Staff, Teachers, or Faculty OU so students are not granted unnecessary add-on tiles.
Everyone at your organization: Installs the add-on domain-wide for all accounts.

Check the box agreeing to terms and click Finish.

Security & Data Privacy Architecture (FERPA & COPPA)

School district IT leaders choose Attendance Tracker because of its privacy-by-design architecture:

Direct-to-Drive Storage: Attendance records and spreadsheets are generated and saved directly into the teacher's own Google Drive. We do not store, copy, or index your students' names or email addresses on external database servers.
No Screen Scraping: Attendance is read directly from Google's official Meet Add-ons SDK and REST APIs via sandboxed iframe. The app cannot read browser history, open tabs, or microphone/camera feeds.
Scoped OAuth Grants: Permissions are restricted strictly to Google Meet space metadata, read-only Calendar attendee matching, and write-only access to sheets created by the app (drive.file scope — we cannot access or read any pre-existing files in Google Drive).
