You should see 'Status: Granted' in green. ![](https://gatlabs.com/knowledge/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/2026-07-31-08_48_47-.png) Now, in the **User Access** section, select 'View organisational units and groups' in blue.

Click SAVE to finish. Now you can click the GAT+ button in the Google Apps menu, and a new scan will begin to run. **IMPORTANT NOTE:**As Google has deprecated its 'Google Sites' product, GAT cannot be granted access to it. You**may** see that the status is only **'Partially Granted' **during this step. However, once you have clicked the 'Grant access' button, you can consider this step finished. ### Access by Super Admin Only By **default**, GAT+** can only be accessed by Super Admins**.**Non-admin accounts cannot log in****.** ### Context-Aware Access If your domain has**Context-Aware Access**, consider enabling and **allowing GAT+**.

Because GAT+ can no longer be granted access to that specific service, the status may not show as fully granted. As long as you have clicked the "Grant Access" button, you can consider this step finished and the app functional. **Q2:** What should I check in the Admin Console if my "Teacher Assist" YouTube controls are not working? **A:** You must ensure that the YouTube service is enabled for your domain. Navigate to Apps > Additional Google Services > YouTube in your Google Admin console and verify that the service is turned ON for everyone (or the specific organizational units requiring the feature).
