Add users to groups

Add each user in <UserTypeEntity> to all of the groups specified by ([<GroupRole>] <GroupEntity>)+. If <GroupRole> is not specified, member is assumed.

gam <UserTypeEntity> add group|groups
        ([<GroupRole>] [[delivery] <DeliverySetting>] <GroupEntity>)+

Basic Example

Add a user to several groups with different roles.

$ gam user testuser1@domain.com add groups owner testgroup1@domain.com manager testgroup2@domain.com member testgroup3@domain.com,testgroup4@domain.com
User: testuser1@domain.com, Add to 4 Groups
  Group: testgroup1@domain.com, Owner: testuser1@domain.com, Added (1/4)
  Group: testgroup2@domain.com, Manager: testuser1@domain.com, Added (2/4)
  Group: testgroup3@domain.com, Member: testuser1@domain.com, Added (3/4)
  Group: testgroup4@domain.com, Member: testuser1@domain.com, Added (4/4)

Advanced Example

Use a CSV file to specify users, groups and roles.

Delete users from groups

gam <UserTypeEntity> delete group|groups
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)|<GroupEntity>]

By default, users will be deleted from all groups of which they are a member, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Delete from all groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, delete from all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member
  • <GroupEntity> - Delete from a specific list of groups

Basic Examples

Delete a user from all groups to which it belongs.

$ gam user testuser1@domain.com delete groups
User: testuser1@domain.com, Delete from 4 Groups
  Group: testgroup1@domain.com, Member: testuser1@domain.com, Deleted (1/4)
  Group: testgroup2@domain.com, Member: testuser1@domain.com, Deleted (2/4)
  Group: testgroup3@domain.com, Member: testuser1@domain.com, Deleted (3/4)
  Group: testgroup4@domain.com, Member: testuser1@domain.com, Deleted (4/4)

Delete users from all groups to which they belong. Assume a CSV file NoGroupsUsers.csv with a column labelled primaryEmail that lists the users.

gam csv NoGroupsUsers.csv gam user "~primaryEmail" delete groups

Advanced Example

Use a CSV file to specify users and groups.

# Current state
$ gam csvkmd users UserGroupRole.csv keyfield User print groups

Delete external user from groups

There is a user from outside of your domain that you would like to delete from all groups.

$ gam user user@external.com delete groups
User: user@external.com, Delete from 0 Groups

There is a Goggle issue that causes this to fail for a few external addresses. To solve this problem, you need the unique ID for the external address; the following steps show how to do this.

Create a test group.

$ gam create group testexternal description "Test External Email Addresses"
Group: testexternal@domain.com, Created

Add the external address to that group.

$ gam update group testexternal add member user@external.com
Group: testexternal@domain.com, Add 1 Member
  Group: testexternal@domain.com, Member: user@external.com, Added: Role: MEMBER

Print the group members of the group to get the unique ID of the external address.

$ gam print group-members group testexternal
Getting all Members, Managers, Owners for testexternal@domain.com
group,type,role,id,status,email
testexternal@domain.com,USER,MEMBER,123406166545652215678,,user@external.com

Delete the external address from all groups.

$ gam user uid:123406166545652215678 delete groups
User: 123406166545652215678, Delete from 2 Groups
  Group: testexternal@domain.com, Member: 123406166545652215678, Deleted (1/2)
  Group: testgroup@domain.com, Member: 123406166545652215678, Deleted (2/2)

Update users group roles and delivery settings

For each user in <UserTypeEntity> update their current group role and delivery settings.

gam <UserTypeEntity> update group|groups
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]) [<GroupRole>] [[delivery] <DeliverySetting>]
        ([<GroupRole>] [[delivery] <DeliverySetting>] [<GroupEntity>])*

By default, update user roles and delivery settings for all groups of which they are a member, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Update user role and delivery settings for all groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, update user role and delivery settings for all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member
  • <GroupEntity> - Update user role and delivery settings for a specific list of groups; you can specify different roles and delivery settings for different group lists

Synchronize users group membership

For each user in <UserTypeEntity> get their current group membership and do adds and deletes as necessary to match ([<GroupRole>] <GroupEntity>)+. If <GroupRole> is not specified, member is assumed.

gam <UserTypeEntity> sync group|groups
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [<GroupRole>] [[delivery] <DeliverySetting>] <GroupEntity>)*

By default, users will be synchronized with all groups of which they are a member, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Synchronize with all groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, synchronize with all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member

Check users group membership

For each user in <UserTypeEntity> check if they are members of the groups in <GroupEntity> with a role in role <GroupsRoleList>; if not specified, any role is acceptable.

gam <UserTypeEntity> check group|groups
        [roles <GroupRoleList>] [includederivedmembership] <GroupEntity>

By default, only direct membership is checked; include the includederivedmembership to check if a user is a member of a group or one of its sub-groups.

A return code of 0 indicates that a user is a member of all of the groups with an acceptable role; a return code of 29 indicates that the user is not a member of all of the groups.

Display users group membership

It takes one API call to get the list of groups to which a user belongs.

Display group names as an indented list

There is one row per group to which a user belongs.

gam <UserTypeEntity> show groups
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>] nodetails

Display group names in CSV format

There is one row per user/group combination.

gam <UserTypeEntity> print groups [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>] nodetails

By default, all groups to which a member belongs are displayed, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Limit display to groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, display all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member
  • roles <GroupRoleList> - Limit display to those groups for which the user has a specific role

Display group details as an indented list

There is one row per group to which a user belongs showing role, status and delivery information.

There is one API call per user/group to get the user's role and delivery settings.

gam <UserTypeEntity> show groups
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>]

Display group details in CSV format

There is one row per user/group combination displaying role, status and delivery information.

There is one API call per user/group to get the user's role and delivery settings.

gam <UserTypeEntity> print groups [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>]

By default, all groups to which a member belongs are displayed, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Limit display to groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, display all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member
  • roles <GroupRoleList> - Limit display to those groups for which the user has a specific role

Display group counts as an indented list

There is one row per user displaying the number of groups, by role, to which a user belongs.

There is one API call per user/group to get the user's role.

gam <UserTypeEntity> show groups
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>] countsonly

Display group counts in CSV format

There is one row per user displaying the number of groups, by role, to which a user belongs.

There is one API call per user/group to get the user's role.

gam <UserTypeEntity> print groups [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>] countsonly

By default, all groups to which a member belongs are displayed, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Limit display to groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, display all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member
  • roles <GroupRoleList> - Limit display to those groups for which the user has a specific role

Display group addresses in CSV format

There is one row per user showing the number and list of groups to which a user directly belongs.

gam <UserTypeEntity> print groupslist [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [delimiter <Character>] [quotechar <Character>]

By default, all groups to which a member belongs are displayed, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Limit display to groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, display all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member

By default, the entries in lists of groups are separated by the csv_output_field_delimiter' from gam.cfg`.

  • delimiter <Character> - Separate list items with <Character>

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. 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.

        [roles <GroupRoleList>]

Display a user's groups and their parents in CSV format.

gam <UserTypeEntity> print grouptree [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [(domain <DomainName>)|(customerid <CustomerID>)]
        [roles <GroupRoleList>]

By default, all groups to which a member belongs are displayed, these options allow selection of subsets of groups:

  • domain <DomainName> - Limit display to groups in the domain <DomainName> of which they are a member
  • customerid <CustomerID> - For resellers, display all groups in a resold workspace of which they are a member

By default, all of a users's groups are displayed without role information. Displaying role information requires an additional API call per user/group combination.

  • roles <GroupRoleList> - Display groups with role information where the user has one of the specified roles
