How can we access license usage information using API?

Google Workspace Developers Q&A
1

We want to automate license usage information reporting. The following metrics are what we are looking for:

  • Google Workspace: Use seats / available

  • Google Workspace: Archive Seats, Average Age

Is there an API or programmatic way to access the above information? Any pointers is appreciated.

Thanks.

You can almost definitely do this with the free, open source, command-line, indispensable GAM tool. Check out https://github.com/jay0lee/GAM/wiki, https://github.com/taers232c/GAMADV-XTD3/wiki, and https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/google-apps-manager for more details.

Hope that helps,

Ian

@sanimesa and @icrew , GAM was invented at Dito (my $dayjob) by the amazing Jay Lee. There is a co-maintained version as well by the awesome Ross Scroggs. Information that can help you get started really quickly with GAM is available here: https://www.ditoweb.com/2021/03/using-open-source-google-apps-manager-to-administer-google-workspace/ -KAM
