additional question about KB "Deploying Box for Google Workspace in your Enterprise"
After reading and verifying the KB listed below. The requirement indicates that "Box Enterprise to paid Google Workspace: For Box enterprises, you must have a Google Workspace enterprise account to connect to the Box for Google Workspace integration. This includes any paid Google editor SKU, including EDU and ORG licenses".
I found that our environment is part of Google Workspace enterprise. But our account is specifically called "Google Workspace for Education Fundamentals". It is a free version since we are an (.)edu.
I like to verify that is this "Box for Google Workspace" app will work with our "Google Workspace for Education Fundamentals".
When I asked Google Support the same question and they confirmed that they think it should work, because the language used in the KB indicates and I quote "...description on the KB for Box they are referring to any Google Workspace edition that is paid or the free approved editions"
Not sure if you can confirm?

Hi Charles,
Welcome to the Box Community!
You can try enabling the integration for Box for Google Workspace for your individual enterprise account following these steps to confirm this:
Enterprise users can access and install the integration by adding it in the Box App Gallery. To do this:
- Go to the Box Applications page
- Locate the listing for Box for Google Workspace and click Add.
The Box for Google Workspace integration is now available. It displays in your Create New and Open With menus.
If you try to create a New google document/ or sheet, it will launch the integration and will prompt you to login, if you are able to login with no issues, then, that means the integration works for your type of account.
Best,
