# Generate and Schedule Reports in Google Cloud Storage with GAT+

[GAT+](https://gatlabs.com/knowledge/tech-tips/gat-overview/) allows you to automate reporting for all aspects of your [Google Workspace](https://workspace.google.com/) domain. These scheduled reports can be set to run automatically at specific times.

**Key features and benefits:**

- **Comprehensive Coverage:** Schedule reports for any audit section within your domain, giving you complete visibility and control.
- **Automation:** Save time and effort by eliminating the need to manually generate reports.
- **Timely Insights:** Receive up-to-date reports on a regular basis to make informed decisions quickly.

With GAT+ scheduled reports, you gain valuable insights into your Google Workspace activity, enabling you to proactively manage and secure your domain.

**The result of the reports can be extracted into:**

- Spreadsheet - Google Drive
- CSV - Google Drive
- CSV - Google Cloud Storage

## Bucket

For the Google Cloud Storage - the Admins must create a Cloud Storage Bucket in their environment.

Once this is done, **permission for GAT+ must be added**.

## Principal

In the custom Bucket for GAT+ reports add permission for the GAT+ app.

In the Permissions > Grant access to GAT+ by > Adding principal of GAT+ > enter the app ID: [**199329000796-770mchl4a472cdofib0fqe7ojb70euvg@developer.gserviceaccount.com**](mailto:199329000796-770mchl4a472cdofib0fqe7ojb70euvg@developer.gserviceaccount.com)

  -  If using a custom bucket make sure it **has permission** with the role '**Storage Legacy Bucket Writer**' for the account: 
    - **199329000796-770mchl4a472cdofib0fqe7ojb70euvg@developer.gserviceaccount.com** in your bucket
