## File Selection
In the `print/show filecounts/filelists/filetree` commands you can limit the files counted/displayed by specifying permissions
that the file must/must not have. Permission matching is expensive on Shared Drives as retrieving the permissions requires a separate API call per file.

You can define multiple `<PermissionMatches>`; each match specifies a set of required fields/values. A permission
matches if all of its fields/values match the required fields/values; you can negate the match with `not`.

### Permission Match Mode
When you specify multiple `<PermissionMatches>`, `<PermissionMatchMode>` controls whether there is a permissions match
when any or all or the `<PermissionMatches>` match.
* `pmm or` - If any `<PermissionMatch>` matches, then there is a permissions match. This is the default.
* `pmm and` - If all `<PermissionMatches>` match, then there is a permissions match.

### Permission Match Action
`<PermissionMatchAction>` controls processing when there is a permissions match.
* `pma process` - If there is a  permissions match, count/display the file. This is the default.
* `pma skip` - If there is a permissions match, do not count/display the file.

## Permission Selection
In the `print/show drivefileacls` and `create/delete permissions` commands you can limit the permissions displayed/processed.

* `pma process` - If a permission matches, display/process the permission. This is the default.
* `pma skip` - If a permission matches, do not display/process the permission.

## Define a Match
* `pm|permissionmatch` - Start of permission match definition.
* `not` - Negate the match.
* `type <DriveFileACLType>` - The type of the grantee must match.
* `nottype <DriveFileACLType>` - The type of the grantee must not match.
* `typelist <DriveFileACLTypeList>` - The type of the grantee must match any value in the list.
* `nottypelist <DriveFileACLTypeList>` - The type of the grantee must not match any value in the list.
* `role <DriveFileACLRole>` - The role granted by this permission must match.
* `notrole <DriveFileACLRole>` - The role granted by this permission must not match.
* `rolelist <DriveFileACLRoleList>` - The role granted by this permission must match any value in the list..
* `notrolelist <DriveFileACLRoleList>` - The role granted by this permission must not match any value in the list..
* `allowfilediscovery|withlink <Boolean>` - Whether a link is required or whether the file can be discovered through search.
* `emailaddress <RegularExpression>` - For types user and group, the required email address.
* `emailaddresslist <EmailAddressList>` - For types user and group, a list of required email addresses; any one of which must match.
* `permissionidlist <PermissionIDListList>` - A list of required permission IDs; any one of which must match.
* `name|displayname <RegularExpression>` - For types domain, user and group, the displayable name.
* `domain <RegularExpression>` - For type domain, the required domain name. For types user and group, the required domain name in the email address.
* `notdomain <RegularExpression>` - For type domain, any domain name that doesn't match. For types user and group, any domain name that doesn't match in the email address.
* `domainlist <DomainNameList>` - For type domain, the required domain name. For types user and group, the required domain name in the email address.
* `notdomainlist <DomainNameList>` - For type domain, any domain name that doesn't match. For types user and group, any domain name that doesn't match in the email address.
* `expirationstart <Time>` - For types user and group, will the permission expire on or after <Time>.
* `expirationend <Time>` - For types user and group, will the permission expire before or on <Time>.
* `deleted <Boolean>` - For types user and groups, has the user or group been deleted.
* `inherited <Boolean>` - For Shared Drive files/folders, is the permission inherited
* `em|endmatch` - End of permission match definition

## File Selection Examples

These are the permission match definitions that would be appended to a command like:
```
gam user user@domain.com print filelist ...
```

Process all files with permissions type anyone:
```
pm type anyone em
```

Process all files except those with permissions type anyone:
```
pm type anyone em
pma skip
```
Process all files owned by someout outside of your domain
```
pm type user role owner notdomain mydomain.com em
```
Process all files shared to users outside of your domains
```
pm type user notrole owner notdomainlist mydomain1.com,mydomain2.com em
```
Process all files with write access for group@domain.com or user@domain.com:
```
pm role writer type group emailaddress group@domain.com em
pm role writer type user emailaddress user@domain.com em
```
Process all files with write access for group@domain.com and user@domain.com:
```
pm role writer type group emailaddress group@domain.com em
pm role writer type user emailaddress user@domain.com em
pmm and
```
Process all files where neither user1@domain.com or user2@domain.com have access:
```
pm type user emailaddress user1@domain.com em
pm type user emailaddress user2@domain.com em
pma skip
```
or you can use regular expressions
```
pm type user emailaddress "user[1|2]@domain.com" em
pma skip
```
Process all files shared with group group@domain.com and not shared with user user@domain.com:
```
pm type group emailaddress group@domain.com em pm not type user user@domain.com em pmm and
```

Process all files shared with domain.com either directly or via a user or group.
```
pm domain domain.com em pm emailaddress ".*@domain.com" em
```

Display all non-inherited permissions on a Shared Drive.
```
pm inherited false em
```
## Permission Selection Examples
These are the permission match definitions that would be appended to a command like:
```
gam user user@domain.com print drivefileacls  ...
```

Display all permissions shared with domain.com either directly or via a user or group.
```
pm domain domain.com em pm emailaddress ".*@domain.com" em
```
