## API documentation
|
||||
* https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/reports/v1/reference/activities
|
||||
|
||||
## Definitions
|
||||
```
|
||||
<DriveFileID> ::= <String>
|
||||
<DriveFileName> ::= <String>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Display File Ownership
|
||||
These commands use the Reports API audit activity and may not find the owner if the file has not been accessed in 180 days.
|
||||
If you specify a `<DriveFileID>`, there will be at most one line of output. If you specify a `<DriveFileName>`, there will be
|
||||
one line of output for each distinct file with that name.
|
||||
|
||||
The Reports API calls are:
|
||||
* `ownership <DriveFileID>` - `gam report drive filter "doc_id==<DriveFileID>"`
|
||||
* `ownership drivefilename <DriveFileName>` - `gam report drive filter "doc_title==<DriveFileName>"`
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
gam show ownership <DriveFileID>|(drivefilename <DriveFileName>)
|
||||
[formatjson]
|
||||
```
|
||||
By default, Gam displays the information as a list of keys and values.
|
||||
* `formatjson` - Display the output in JSON notation
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
gam print ownership <DriveFileID>|(drivefilename <DriveFileName>) [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
|
||||
(addcsvdata <FieldName> <String>)*
|
||||
[formatjson [quotechar <Character>]]
|
||||
```
|
||||
* `addcsvdata <FieldName> <String>` - Add additional columns of data from the command line to the output
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Gam displays the information as columns of fields; the following option causes the output to be in JSON format.
|
||||
* `formatjson` - Display the fields in JSON format.
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
When using the `formatjson` option, double quotes are used extensively in the data resulting in hard to read/process output.
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
## Display File Ownership for Old files
|
||||
If the above commands fail, you can try to loop through all accounts, however this might take a long time if you are on a large Google Workspace Account.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
gam config auto_batch_min 1 redirect csv - multiprocess redirect stderr null multiprocess all users print filelist select id <DriveFileID> fields id,name,owners.emailaddress norecursion showownedby any
|
||||
```
|
||||
Starting with version 6.07.26, this can be made more efficient by terminating processing after the owner is identified.
|
||||
```
|
||||
gam config auto_batch_min 1 multiprocessexit rc=0 redirect csv - multiprocess redirect stderr null multiprocess all users print filelist select id <DriveFileID> fields id,name,owners.emailaddress norecursion showownedby any
|
||||
```
