## Further Configuration
-This further configuration is not required for Google authentication to function but it is strongly recommended. Taking these steps will increase usability for users by providing a little more recognition and branding.
-
-At this point, when users first try to authenticate to your GitLab installation with Google they will see a generic application name on the prompt screen. The prompt informs the user that "Project Default Service Account" would like to access their account. "Project Default Service Account" isn't very recognizable and may confuse or cause users to be concerned. This is easily changeable.
