What are location-based alerts in GAT Shield?<\/strong><br \/>\nLocation-based alerts in GAT Shield notify Google Workspace Admins when users access their Chromebook or browser outside a defined geographical area. These alerts can be configured to display warnings, block access, or log incidents for auditing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Does the location rule apply to all users?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo. You can scope the rule to specific users, groups, or organisational units, and apply exclusions or time restrictions for more control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Will users be notified when an alert is triggered?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, if you select the \u201cShow warning\u201d action, users will see a customisable warning message. Admins will always see triggered alerts in the Shield Notifications Centre.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. What do I need to enable location-based alerts?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe GAT Shield Chrome extension must be installed on users&#8217; devices, and users must be logged into Chrome with sync enabled.<\/p>\n<h2>Related Articles<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/gatlabs.com\/knowledge\/tech-tips\/gat-shield-upload-alert-google-drive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Set Upload Alerts for Google Drive<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/gatlabs.com\/knowledge\/tech-tips\/create-and-display-critical-commands-for-users-with-gat-shield\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Send Critical Commands in Chrome<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GAT Shield supports location-based alerts and access control for Chromebooks, allowing Google Workspace Admins to trigger real-time notifications or restrict access when users operate outside designated areas.
