Note

Once the installation is complete, Nightfall needs to sync data from your Google Drive. This process takes a few minutes. You can create policies before the sync process is completed. However, the process of scanning files begins once the sync is completed.

Once the installation and sync is completed, Nightfall connects to your Google Workspace account and fetches all the domains. In the above image, you can see that 3 domains are fetched. These three domains were already present in your Google Workspace and are internal to your organization. Nightfall also allows you to add external domains as internal domains. You can do this by clicking the ellipsis menu at the right end and selecting Manage Domains.

The Manage Domains window is displayed as follows.

Enter the domain name in the Domain Name field, hit the enter key, and click Confirm.
