Special quoting

You specify a single label name with label <LabelName> and a list of labels with labellist <LabelNameList>. As label names can contain spaces, some care must be used when entering <LabelName> and <LabelNametList>.

Suppose you have a label Foo Bar. To delete it you enter the command: gam user user@domain.com delete label "Foo Bar"

The shell strips the " leaving a single argument Foo Bar; gam correctly processes the argument.

Suppose you enter the command: gam user user@domain.com delete labellist "Foo Bar"

The shell strips the " leaving a single argument Foo Bar; gam splits the argument on space leaving two items and then tries to process Foo and Bar, not what you want.

You must enter: gam user user@domain.com delete labellist "'Foo Bar'"

The shell strips the " leaving a single argument 'Foo Bar'; gam splits the argument on space while honoring the ' leaving one item Foo Bar and correctly processes the item.

For quoting rules, see: List Quoting Rules

Add a label

gam <UserTypeEntity> [add] label|labels <LabelName>
        [messagelistvisibility hide|show] [labellistvisibility hide|show|showifunread]
        [backgroundcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelBackgroundColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]
        [textcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelTextColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]
        [buildpath [<Boolean>]] 
gam <UserTypeEntity> create labellist <LabelNameEntity>
        [messagelistvisibility hide|show] [labellistvisibility hide|show|showifunread] [buildpath [<Boolean>]]
        [backgroundcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelBackgroundColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]
        [textcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelTextColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]
        [buildpath [<Boolean>]]

<LabelColorHex> values should be enclosed in " to keep the command shell on MacOS and Linux from mis-interpreting them.

In Gmail, you can have a multi-level label like Top/Middle/Bottom; you can also have a single-level label like Top/Middle/Bottom,

  • If buildpath is omitted or <Boolean> is set to False, labels containing / will be created as single-level.
  • If buildpath is present and <Boolean> is omitted or set to True, labels containing / will be created as multi-level; all parent labels are created as necessary.

Example: gam user user@domain.com add label "Top/Middle/Bottom" buildpath

Update a label's settings

The two commands are equivalent; in the first you specify a <LabelName>, in the second you specify a <LabelId>.

gam <UserTypeEntity> update labelsettings <LabelName> [name <String>]
        [messagelistvisibility hide|show] [labellistvisibility hide|show|showifunread]
        [backgroundcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelBackgroundColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]
        [textcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelTextColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]

gam <UserTypeEntity> update labelid <LabelID> [name <String>]
        [messagelistvisibility hide|show] [labellistvisibility hide|show|showifunread]
        [backgroundcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelBackgroundColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]
        [textcolor "<LabelColorHex>|<LabelTextColorHex>|custom:<ColorHex>"]

<LabelColorHex> values should be enclosed in " to keep the command shell on MacOS and Linux from mis-interpreting them.

Change label names

gam <UserTypeEntity> update label|labels
        [search <REMatchPattern>] [replace <RESubstitution>] [merge [keepoldlabel]]

At it's simplest, <REMatchPattern> is the old label name, and <RESubstitution> is the new label name. To change the label "Foo" to a new label "Bar" (the label "Bar" must not already exist):

gam user user@domain.com update label search "Foo" replace "Bar"

If there is any chance that "Foo" may appear in the middle of a label, you can anchor the search <RegularExpressions> with ^ and $ so that only "Foo" exactly matches.

gam user user@domain.com update label search "^Foo$" replace "Bar"

To change the label "Foo" to an existing label "Bar", use the merge option. If you want to keep "Foo" after the merge, use the keepoldlabel option; otherwise, it will be deleted which may not be desirable.

gam user user@domain.com update label search "^Foo$" replace "Bar" merge keepoldlabel

If you want to use part of an old label name in the new label name, you isolate the portion of the old label name you want to keep and indicate in the new label name where the isolated portion goes. In search <REMatchPattern> there should be at least one instance of a parenthesized expression, e.g., (.*). In replace <RESubstitution>, \1, \2, ... indicate where the isolated portions go.

gam user user@domain.com update label search "^INBOX/(.*)$" replace "O365/\1"

Delete labels

gam <UserTypeEntity> delete|del label|labels <LabelName>|regex:<REMatchPattern>|--ALL_LABELS--
gam <UserTypeEntity> delete labelid <LabelID>
gam <UserTypeEntity> delete labellist <LabelNameEntity>
gam <UserTypeEntity> delete labelidlist <LabelIDEntity>

Display labels

gam <UserTypeEntity> show labels|label
        [useronly|onlyuser [<Boolean>]] [showcounts [<Boolean>]]
        [nested [<Boolean>]] [display allfields|basename|fullname]
        [labellist <LabelNameEntity>]
gam <UserTypeEntity> print labels|label [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]
        [useronly|onlyuser [<Boolean>]] [showcounts [<Boolean>]]
        [labellist <LabelNameEntity>]

By default, all labels, user and system are displayed.

  • useronly|onlyuser - Do not display system labels.

  • labellist <LabelNameEntity> - Display selected labels

  • showCounts - The fields: messagesTotal, messagesUnread, threadsTotal and threadsUnread are displayed in addition to other fields.

  • nested - This causes nested labels to be indented under their parent label to allow the hierarchy to be more clearly visible.

  • If display is not specified or display allfields is specified, the full name of the label and the fields (type, id, labelListVisibility, messageListVisibility) are displayed.

  • If display fullname is specified, the full name of the label, and no other fields, is displayed.

  • If display basename is specified, the base name (rightmost component) of the label, and no other fields, is displayed. The display fullname/basename options are most useful in conjunction with nested.
