API documentation

Definitions

<DayOfWeek> ::= mon|tue|wed|thu|fri|sat|sun
<Time> ::=
        <Year>-<Month>-<Day>(<Space>|T)<Hour>:<Minute>:<Second>[.<MilliSeconds>](Z|(+|-(<Hour>:<Minute>))) |

Special quoting

If you are going to use config csv_output_row_filter when printing reports, you'll need special quoting in the filter because of the : characters in the parameter names.

See: https://github.com/GAM-team/GAM/wiki/CSV-Output-Filtering#quoting-rules

For example:

config csv_output_row_filter "'\"accounts:used_quota_in_mb\":count>15000'"

        (addcsvdata <FieldName> <String>)* [shownoactivities]

Select the application with <ActivityApplicationName>.

Select the users for whom information is desired.

  • user all - All users, the default; there is one API call
  • user <UserItem> - An individual user; there is one API call
  • orgunit|org|ou <OrgUnitPath> - All users in the specified OU; there is one API call
    • showorgunit - Add a column labelled actor.orgUnitPath to the output; an additional API call is made to get the email addresses of the users in <OrgUnitPath>
  • select <UserTypeEntity> - A selected collection of users, e.g., select group [email protected]; there is one API call per user

Limit the time period.

  • start <Time>
  • end <Time>
  • range <Time> <Time> - Equivalent to start <Time> end <Time>
  • yesterday - Yesterday
  • today - Today
  • thismonth - The current calendar month up to the current time
  • previousmonths <Integer> - A number in the range 1 to 6 indicating calendar months previous to the current month

Apply API filters.

  • filter|filters <String> - <String> is a comma separated list of filter expressions.

Use the filtertime<String> <Time> option to allow times, usually relative, to be substituted into the filters option. The filtertime<String> <Time> value replaces the string #filtertime<String># in any filters.. The characters following filtertime can be any combination of lowercase letters and numbers. This is most useful in scripts where you can specify a relative date without having to change the script.

You can use config csv_output_row_filter to filter the events if the API filter can't produce the results you want.

Limit to a list of specific events.

  • event|events <EventNameList>

Limit to a specific IP address.

  • ip <String>

Limit to those users that are a member of at least one of a list of groups.

  • groupidfilter <String> - Format: "id:abc123,id:xyz456"

Limit the total number of activites.

  • maxactivities <Number>

Limit the number of events per activity; this only applies when countsonly is False.

  • maxevents <Number>

Limit the number of activities downloaded per API call; infrequently used.

  • maxresults <Number>

Setting options maxactivities 1 maxevents 1 maxresults 1 can be used to as efficiently as possible show the most recent activity/event; this can be useful when reporting drive activity for individual drive files.

Add additional columns of data from the command line to the output.

  • addcsvdata <FieldName> <String>

Display a row with a key value of NoActivities when there are no activities to report.

  • shownoactivities

By default, individual event details are displayed, these options modify what's displayed.

  • countsonly - Limit the display to the number of occurences of each event for each user
  • countsonly summary - Limit the display to the number of occurences of each event summarized across all users
  • countsonly [summary] eventrowfilter - Apply config csv_output_row_filter to the event details rather than the event counts

Example

You're interested in files with extension xyz created yesterday.

Details for each file

gam config csv_output_row_filter "doc_title:regex:\.xyz" report drive event create yesterday

Number of files by each user

gam config csv_output_row_filter "doc_title:regex:\.xyz" report drive event create yesterday countsonly eventrowfilter

Number of files summarized across all users

gam config csv_output_row_filter "doc_title:regex:\.xyz" report drive event create yesterday countsonly summary eventrowfilter

Find Shared Drives with no activity

Remember that activity events are only available for the past 180 days.

Get Shared Drives ID and Name

gam redirect csv ./SharedDrives.csv print shareddrives fields id,name

Options for the gam report drive commands below:

  • maxactivities 1 - Limits the number of activities displayed for Shared Drives with activity.
  • shownoactivities - Displays a row for Shared Drives with no activity.
  • addcsvdata shared_drive_id "~id" adds the Shared Drive ID to the output.
  • addcsvdata shared_drive_name "~name" adds the Shared Drive name to the output.

Get activities with minimal activty data.

gam config csv_output_header_filter "name,id.time,shared_drive_id,shared_drive_name" redirect csv ./SharedDrivesActivity.csv multiprocess redirect stderr - multiprocess csv SharedDrives.csv gam report drive filter "shared_drive_id==~~id~~" maxactivities 1 shownoactivities addcsvdata shared_drive_id "~id" addcsvdata shared_drive_name "~name"

Example output from SharedDrivesActivity.csv:

Customer and user reports parameters

Display the valid parameters for customer and user reports.

gam report usageparameters customer|user [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]

Customer usage reports

Display customer usage data over a date range.

gam report usage customer [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [([start|startdate <Date>] [end|enddate <Date>])|(range <Date> <Date>)|
         thismonth|(previousmonths <Integer>)]
        [skipdates <Date>[:<Date>](,<Date>[:<Date>])*] [skipdaysofweek <DayOfWeek>(,<DayOfWeek>)*]
        [fields|parameters <String>]
        [convertmbtogb]

Limit the time period.

  • start <Date> - Default value is 30 days prior to end <Date>
  • end <Date> - Default value is today
  • range <Date> <Date> - Equivalent to start <Date> end <Date>
  • thismonth - The current calendar month up to the current time
  • previousmonths <Integer> - A number in the range 1 to 6 indicating calendar months previous to the current month

Option convertmbtogb causes GAM to convert parameters expressed in megabytes (name ends with _in_mb) to gigabytes (name converted to _in_gb) with two decimal places.

Example

Jay provided this example.

gam report usage customer parameters meet:total_call_minutes,meet:total_meeting_minutes start_date 2020-03-01 skipdaysofweek sat,sun todrive

A bit about this command

  • call minutes = 1 device joined to a meeting
    • 5 users on a 10 minute meeting = 50 call minutes
    • 2 users on 5 minute call = 10 call minutes
  • meeting minutes = length of actual meeting
    • 2 users on 10 minute meeting = 10 meeting minutes
    • 10 users on 10 minute meeting = 10 meeting minutes. I excluded weekend days when the organization was closed to avoid dramatic "camel humps" in the data.

Customer reports

Customer reports are generally available up to two days before the current date.

<CustomerServiceName> ::=
        accounts|
        app_maker|
        apps_scripts|
        calendar|
        classroom|
        cros|
        device_management|
        docs|
        drive|
        gmail|
        gplus|
        meet|
        sites
<CustomerServiceNameList> ::= "<CustomerServiceName>(,<CustomerServiceName>)*"

gam report customers|customer|domain [todrive <ToDriveAttributes>*]
        [(date <Date>)|(range <Date> <Date>)|
         yesterday|today|thismonth|(previousmonths <Integer>)]
        [(nodatechange | limitdatechanges <Integer>) | (fulldatarequired all|<CustomerServiceNameList>)]
        [(fields|parameters <String>)|(services <CustomerServiceNameList>)]
        [noauthorizedapps]
        [convertmbtogb]

Specify the report date; the default is today's date.

  • date <Date> - A single date; there is one API call
  • range <Date> <Date> - A range of dates; there is an API call per date
  • yesterday - Yesterday; there is one API call
  • today - Today; there is one API call
  • thismonth - The current calendar month up to the current time; there is an API call per date
  • previousmonths <Integer> - A number in the range 1 to 6 indicating calendar months previous to the current month; there is an API call per date

Option convertmbtogb causes GAM to convert parameters expressed in megabytes (name ends with _in_mb) to gigabytes (name converted to _in_gb) with two decimal places.

If no report is available for the specified date, can an earlier date be used?

  • `limitdatechanges -1' - Back up to earlier dates to find report data; this is the default.
  • `limitdatechanges 0 | nodatechange' - Do not report on an earlier date if no report data is available for the specified date.
  • `limitdatechanges N' - Back up to earlier dates to find report data; do not back up more than N times.

If only partial report data is available for the specified date and applications, can an earlier date be used?

  • fulldatarequired all - Back up to an earlier date to get complete data until all applications have full report data
  • fulldatarequired <UserServiceNameList> - Back up to an earlier date to get complete data until all applications in <UserServiceNameList> have full report data

By default, all parameters for all services are displayed, you can select to display fewer parameters.

  • fields|parameters <String> - A list of service parameters separated by commas
  • services <CustomerServiceNameList> - All parameters for a list of services
  • noauthorizedapps - Do not display the authorized_apps parameter for the accounts service

When no date is specified or date <Date> is specified, the data is output in three columns: date,name,value. name is the parameter name and value is its value. This format is useful for human reading but as useful for manipulating in a spreadsheet.

When range <Date> <Date> is specified, the data is output in multiple columns: date,name1,name2,name3.... This format is useful for manipulating in a spreadsheet.

gam report users|user [todrive <ToDriveAttributes>*]
        [(user all|<UserItem>)|(orgunit|org|ou <OrgUnitPath> [showorgunit])|(select <UserTypeEntity>)]
        [allverifyuser <UserItem>]
        [(date <Date>)|(range <Date> <Date>)|

        [(fields|parameters <String>)|(services <UserServiceNameList>)]
        [aggregatebydate|aggregatebyuser [Boolean]]
        [maxresults <Number>]
        [convertmbtogb]

Select the users for whom information is desired.

  • user all - All users, the default; there is one API call

  • select <UserTypeEntity> - A selected collection of users, e.g., select group [email protected]; there is one API call per user

By default, when user all is specified (or no user specification in supplied), GAM backs up looking for data with a (basically) random user. If the randaom doesn't have any data, the command reports that no data was found. Use allverifyuser <UserItem> to specify a specific user to use to search for data.

Specify the report date; the default is today's date.

  • date <Date> - A single date; there is one API call
  • range <Date> <Date> - A range of dates; there is an API call per date
  • yesterday - Yesterday; there is one API call
  • today - Today; there is one API call

  • previousmonths <Integer> - A number in the range 1 to 6 indicating calendar months previous to the current month; there is an API call per date

Option convertmbtogb causes GAM to convert parameters expressed in megabytes (name ends with _in_mb) to gigabytes (name converted to _in_gb) with two decimal places.

If no report is available for the specified date, can an earlier date be used?

  • `limitdatechanges -1' - Back up to earlier dates to find report data; this is the default.
  • `limitdatechanges 0 | nodatechange' - Do not report on an earlier date if no report data is available for the specified date.
  • `limitdatechanges N' - Back up to earlier dates to find report data; do not back up more than N times.

If only partial report data is available for the specified date and applications, can an earlier date be used?

  • fulldatarequired all - Back up to an earlier date to get complete data until all applications have full report data
  • fulldatarequired <UserServiceNameList> - Back up to an earlier date to get complete data until all applications in <UserServiceNameList> have full report data

By default, when user <UserItem> is specified and no report data is available, there is no output. If csv_output_users_audit = true in gam.cfg, then a row with columns email,date will be displayed where date is the earliest date for which report data was requested.

Apply filters.

  • filter|filters <String> - <String> is a comma separated list of filter expressions.

Use the filtertime<String> <Time> option to allow times, usually relative, to be substituted into the filters option. The filtertime<String> <Time> value replaces the string #filtertime<String># in any filters.. The characters following filtertime can be any combination of lowercase letters and numbers. This is most useful in scripts where you can specify a relative date without having to change the script.

For example, filter for last logins more that 60 days ago.

filtertime60d -60d filters "accounts:last_login_time<#filtertime60d#"

Select the fields/parameters to display.

  • fields|parameters <String> - A list of parameters separated by commas
  • services <UserServiceNameList> - All parameters for a list of services

Select data format.

  • aggregatebydate|aggregatebyuser is omitted or is False, there is one row of data per user per date.
  • aggregatebydate is present and is omitted or is True, the data is aggregated by date for all users so that there is one row per date.
  • aggregatebyuser is present and is omitted or is True, the data is aggregated by user for all dates so that there is one row per user.

Limit the number of activities downloaded per API call; infrequently used.

  • maxresults <Number>

Monthly Report

An example, running this on 3rd December 2020;-

If combined with a scheduled task or cron job, this will produce an ongoing report with a new tab/sheet for each month.

$ gam report usage customer parameters meet:total_call_minutes,meet:total_meeting_minutes skipdaysofweek sat,sun previousmonths 1 todrive tdfileid <File ID> tdtitle "Meet Usage" tdtimeformat %Y-%m-%d tdaddsheet tdsheet "" tdsheettimeformat "%B %Y" tdsheetdaysoffset 6

Breakdown

  • gam report usage customer parameters meet:total_call_minutes,meet:total_meeting_minutes - The GAM command
  • skipdaysofweek sat,sun - exclude Sat & Sun, so only working days
  • previousmonths 1 - run against the previous months date range (regardless of how many days in the month, leap year etc)
  • todrive tdfileid tdtitle "Meet Usage" tdtimeformat %Y-%m-%d - write the data to an existing Google Sheet and append with current date, so it will be called "Meet Usage - 2020-12-03"
  • tdaddsheet tdsheet "" - Add a new tab/sheet with no name
  • tdsheettimeformat "%B %Y" tdsheetdaysoffset 6 - give the new tab/sheet a time stamp backdated by 6 days of 'Month Year', so for this example "November 2020", which will become the name of the new tab/sheet. The offset number must take you back in time into the previous month.

Notes

You need to have already created the Google Sheet, to get the File ID. And tdtitle is not optional, although you should be able to specify "" (a blank name) if you just want the Google Sheet to show the updated date.
