Google Admin SDK Directory API push notifications to Salesforce?

I have set up the Salesforce Integration Connector in GCP per Google instructions, and now I am exploring using the Admin SDK Directory API's users/watch endpoint to send push notifications to the connected Salesforce org.

Documentation here explains I must use a CA-signed certificate.  Is this installed in my Salesforce org?  What values do I use in the Cert Signing Request for the "Common Name" as the Salesforce form calls it?

Or is this certificate something I can generate in GCP Secret Manager and simply import into Salesforce?  Thanks for any help, neither platform's instructions are clear and I am not a certificate expert.

Hi @AdamThorsell,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

I would suggest following this documentation on configuring Salesforce trigger as this is inline with Google Cloud Application Integration.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response, @robertcarlos !  I read that link, and I am familiar with Change Data Capture and Platform Events certainly when Salesforce is the sender of those events, as the link describes.  But I need a solution for when the event changes on the Google side, and Salesforce receives those notifications and acts on them.  Does the configuration you described help me in this case, where I want to subscribe to changes on the Google side (specifically user records via the Admin SDK Directory API)?  Thanks.
