In October 2023, Google Workspace began limiting the access of users under 18 to third-party apps that a Workspace administrator has reviewed and authorized. More information from Google can be found here. If your students are unable to log in to eSpark, it may be because eSpark hasn't yet been added as a trusted application in Google Workspace for Education.
