### Providing Panel Users with Access to Google Services for Websites

After you create a new user account in Parallels Plesk Panel, you need to associate that account with a Google Apps user account.

To create a Google Apps user account and associate it with a user account in Parallels Plesk Panel:

- For the Parallels Plesk Panel administrator's account, run the `admin` command line utility with the option `--create-gapps-account`.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/admin` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\``Parallels`\Plesk\bin\admin.exe`` on Windows systems.

- For a Parallels Plesk Panel reseller's account, run the `reseller` command line utility with the option ``--create-gapps-account <reseller's-username-in-the-panel>``.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/reseller` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\``Parallels`\Plesk\bin\reseller.exe`` on Windows systems.

- For a Parallels Plesk Panel client's account, run the `client` utility with the option``--create-gapps-account <client's-username-in-the-panel>``.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/client` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\``Parallels`\Plesk\bin\client.exe`` on Windows systems.

Now the user account in the Panel is associated with the newly created Google Apps user account, and the following items appear in the user's Parallels Plesk Panel:

- The Google Services for Websites links in the navigation pane and on user's Home page.
- The Google Services for Websites page accessible via the aforementioned links.

  This page enables users to add Custom Search engines to websites, create a new Google AdSense account, and it provides links to webmaster tools and useful resources at the Google website. When users of Parallels Plesk Panel click these links, they are taken to their Google accounts where they are logged in automatically.

To associate a user account in Parallels Plesk Panel with an already existing Google Apps user account:

- For the Parallels Plesk Panel administrator's account, run the `admin` command line utility with the options `--link-gapps-account -gapps-login <google-apps-account-username> -gapps-passwd <google-apps-account-password>`.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/admin` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\Parallels\Plesk\bin\admin.exe` on Windows systems.

- For a Parallels Plesk Panel reseller's account, run the `reseller` command line utility with the options `--link-gapps-account <reseller's-username-in-the-panel> -gapps-login <google-apps-account-username> -gapps-passwd <google-apps-account-password>`.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/reseller` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\Parallels\Plesk\bin\reseller.exe` on Windows systems.

- For a Parallels Plesk Panel client's account, run the `client` utility with the options `--link-gapps-account <client's-username-in-the-panel> -gapps-login <google-apps-account's-username> -gapps-passwd <google-apps-account's-password>`.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/client` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\Parallels\Plesk\bin\client.exe` on Windows systems.

If you need to remove a user account from the Panel, then you first need to remove the Google Apps account associated with this user, and then remove the user account from the Panel.

To remove a Google Apps account associated with a user:

- For the Parallels Plesk Panel administrator's account, run the `admin` command line utility with the option `--``remove`-gapps-account``.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/admin` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\``Parallels`\Plesk\bin\admin.exe`` on Windows systems.

- For a Parallels Plesk Panel reseller's account, run the `reseller` command line utility with the option ``--remove-gapps-account <reseller's-username-in-the-panel>``.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/reseller` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\``Parallels`\Plesk\bin\reseller.exe`` on Windows systems.

- For a Parallels Plesk Panel client's account, run the `client` utility with the option``--remove-gapps-account <client's-username-in-the-panel>``.

  The path to the utility is `/usr/local/psa/bin/client` on Linux systems, and `C:\Program Files\``Parallels`\Plesk\bin\client.exe`` on Windows systems.
