Script Repository

Create Google Apps Account

February 03, 2023 Views: 3589

The script creates a Google Apps account for an Active Directory user.

Note: Before using the script, install and configure the GAM Tool on the computer where Adaxes service runs. For details, see GAM Wiki.

Parameters:

  • $gamPath - Specifies a path to the GAM executable file.
  • $waitTimeMilliseconds - Specifies the time to wait for GAM response. It is recommended not to set a time exceeding the 10 minutes' limit applied by Adaxes to scripts executed by business rules, custom commands and scheduled tasks. If a script runs for more time than you specify, it will be completed, but the errors, warnings and other messages will not be added to the Execution Log.
