Trying to get Google Workspace to work with SSLVPN for SSO and tie login to the department attribute.

We want to give users different access to network resources when they connect to SSLVPN via SSO with Google Workspace.
Depending on their department they will get a different firewall policy and hence different access into the network.

We are successful at the Google Workspace integration using the "Any" option and they can login ok with SSO. However, if we use the Group option, they can't login.
