About G Suite Password Sync
G Suite Password Sync (GSPS) automatically keeps your users' G Suite passwords in sync with their Microsoft® Active Directory® passwords. Whenever a user's Active Directory password is changed, GSPS pushes the change to G Suite immediately.
GSPS used to be known as Google Apps Password Sync (GAPS).
Important: GSPS never changes your Active Directory passwords; it only syncs Active Directory password changes to G Suite.
