The Google Workspace Marketplace offers a wide range of enterprise apps that add functionality and features to native Google Cloud apps. Anyone with a Google Workspace account can use the marketplace.
As an Administrator, you can install apps for your users, and authorize which applications they can install for themselves. Once installed, apps are accessible through the App launcher alongside Google Workspace apps such as Gmail, Calendar and Drive.
The Marketplace is available at workspace.google.com/marketplace, and you can also access the Marketplace from the Admin console.

Notes
Notes
Creating an allowlist does not uninstall previously installed apps from a user's devices.
Just like a Google service, Marketplace apps can be turned on and off at the organizational unit (OU) level.
Some apps are available only for Administrators to install and can’t be allowlisted.
