Quoting rules

Items in a list can be separated by commas or spaces; if an item itself contains a comma, a space or a single quote, special quoting must be used. Typically, you will enclose the entire list in double quotes and quote each item in the list as detailed below.

• Items, separated by commas, without spaces, commas or single quotes in the items themselves
  • "item,item,item"
• Items, separated by spaces, without spaces, commas or single quotes in the items themselves
  • "item item item"
• Items, separated by commas, with spaces, commas or single quotes in the items themselves
  • "'it em','it,em',\"it'em\""
• Items, separated by spaces, with spaces, commas or single quotes in the items themselves
  • "'it em' 'it,em' \"it'em\""

Display Chrome version counts

These counts are for provisioned devices.

gam show chromeversions
        [(ou <OrgUnitItem>)|(ou_and_children <OrgUnitItem>)|
         (ous <OrgUnitList>)|(ous_and_children <OrgUnitList>)]
        [start <Date>] [end <Date>]
        [recentfirst [<Boolean>]]
        [formatjson]

Use these options to select Chrome devices; if none are chosen, all Chrome devices in the account are selected.

• ou <OrgUnitItem> - Select devices directly in the OU <OrgUnitItem>
• ou_and_children <OrgUnitItem> - Select devices in the OU <OrgUnitItem> and its sub OUs
• ous <OrgUnitList> - Select devices directly in the OUs <OrgUnitList>
• ous_and_children <OrgUnitList> - Select devices in the OUs <OrgUnitList> and their sub OUs
• start <Date> - The minimum last_active_date for the devices
• end <Date> - The maximum last_active_date for the devices

By default, the versions are displayed from oldest to most recent; use the recentfirst option to reverse this order.

By default, Gam displays the information as an indented list of keys and values.

• formatjson - Display the fields in JSON format.

gam print chromeversions [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [(ou <OrgUnitItem>)|(ou_and_children <OrgUnitItem>)|
         (ous <OrgUnitList>)|(ous_and_children <OrgUnitList>)]
        [start <Date>] [end <Date>]
        [recentfirst [<Boolean>]]
        [formatjson [quotechar <Character>]]

Use these options to select Chrome devices; if none are chosen, all Chrome devices in the account are selected.

• ou <OrgUnitItem> - Select devices directly in the OU <OrgUnitItem>
• ou_and_children <OrgUnitItem> - Select devices in the OU <OrgUnitItem> and its sub OUs
• ous <OrgUnitList> - Select devices directly in the OUs <OrgUnitList>
• ous_and_children <OrgUnitList> - Select devices in the OUs <OrgUnitList> and their sub OUs
• start <Date> - The minimum last_active_date for the devices
• end <Date> - The maximum last_active_date for the devices

By default, the versions are displayed from oldest to most recent; use the recentfirst option to reverse this order.

By default, Gam displays the information as columns of fields; the following option causes the output to be in JSON format,

• formatjson - Display the fields in JSON format.

By default, when writing CSV files, Gam uses a quote character of double quote ". The quote character is used to enclose columns that contain the quote character itself, the column delimiter (comma by default) and new-line characters. Any quote characters within the column are doubled. When using the formatjson option, double quotes are used extensively in the data resulting in hard to read/process output. The quotechar <Character> option allows you to choose an alternate quote character, single quote for instance, that makes for readable/processable output. quotechar defaults to gam.cfg/csv_output_quote_char. When uploading CSV files to Google, double quote " should be used.
