Getting Started with GAM

A hands-on introduction to GAM - A powerful, open source, command line tool for Google Workspace administration

Description

🔨 GAM is an essential part of any seasoned Workspace administrator's toolkit. It harnesses the power of Google's Admin API, allowing administrators to perform operations in a matter of seconds, which would previously have involved lengthy processes using the admin console.

As a command-line tool, it is incredibly flexible, and scriptable, - meaning that there is almost always a way to achieve what you need.

This hands-on, 1:1 coaching session with one of our GAM experts can take you from never having used the command line to having a working GAM install and a repertoire of simple commands. You will practice them in a test domain along with our expert.

If you have a little experience already? No problem. Bring along some ideas and questions, and our expert will guide you towards your next steps.

A typical agenda for the session:

  • Installation in Google Cloud Shell
  • Common commands and use cases
  • Bulk operations using CSV files
  • Scripting demonstration
  • Q&A
