Broadcast requires domain permissions

This is on all my Google Home devises.

Now when I try and broadcast through the speakers is it saying I need Domain Admin permissions?

Where do I go to set that up?

Same issue here. Started months ago and still isn't resolved.  I sent feedback but that was worthless as no one ever reached out and clearly Google isn't listening to us.

I'm having the same problem. I could use the two-sentence workaround for a while, but as of today I am completely unable to send a broadcast.

Yep, that worked for a hot second.  Then stopped.  Then you could still broadcast from your Android phone, then that stopped.  That had to be the best feature (broadcast).  Without it feels like my Google Assistants are getting dumber and dumber.

Now I can no longer share my device either. My wife and I used to be able to do voice control like adding things to our respective shopping list. Now she's be removed and I can't share with her. It won't recognize her voice. Please tell me which forum I can open a discussion on this. 

 

For  what it's work, we are very frustrated with Google slowly removing features and ignoring it's user issues.

Yeah, I have fond memories of the old days when it used to work in so many ways that it does not now.

There are also many threads regarding the broadcast issue on reddit and these forums.  I feel like mine has been unable to broadcast due to admin permissions for going on 6 months now. I am the admin it was working fine until Google changed something and I've verified all settings to no avail.  I have 17 Google assistants peppered through my house some with screens some just speakers. 

I'm starting to regret going with the Google ecosystem.  Like everything Google they make big promises sell you on something then sunset it.  They can't even get their product naming right.  Gemini has been changed once or twice.  Hangouts now Google Meet had its name changed at least 3-4 times.  The list goes on and on.  I'm ready to eBay my Google ecosystem and go with Echo.  I heard it works better than Google with Google Workspace accounts.

The idea that a product can be THIS broken because of the user account the user elects to use for authentication is ridiculous. It shouldn't matter if you're using a Gmail or a Gsuite account. And if it does, then the permissions the system thinks it needs need to actually be implemented in Gsuite. Currently they're not. 

At the very least give us a dead simple way to convert back to a standard Google account.  And by easy I mean easy.  I don't want to have to setup all my smart devices, routines, transfer photos etc.  That would suffice for me at least

Not sure why they keep gimping G Suite legacy accounts.

Just discovered this is broken for me as well. Lots of posts on Reddit reporting the same.
