What happens when your GAT Shield license expires?<\/h2>\r\n

GAT Shield consists of two components: the GAT Shield Console<\/strong> and the GAT Shield extension<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n

If your trial license expires or your paid license is discontinued, we recommend removing the GAT Shield extension from all locations where it was deployed.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

Remove the Extension<\/h3>\r\n

Log in to Google Admin Console <\/strong>as a Super Admin.<\/p>\r\n

Navigate to\u00a0 Devices > Chrome > Apps & Extensions > Users & browsers > Overview<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/p>\r\n

In the Overview tab – search for ID – enter a few letters of the Shield ID and Apply.<\/p>\r\n

The result will show all the organization units where this extension is installed.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/p>\r\n

You can systematically remove it from each Org Unit if you have identified where the GAT Shield extension is deployed.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Clicking on the extension ID (2) – will display the extension details.<\/p>\r\n

Click on the “bin icon<\/strong>” (3) – it will remove the app from the current org. unit.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

NOTE: This must be done on each of the Org. Units where Shield is deployed, as it could be individually deployed to OUs and not inherited from the top OU etc.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Result<\/h3>\r\n

The Shield extension will be removed from your domain org. units and your end-users.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
