I have run this command to show all labels and counts applied to messages:

gam all users print labels showcounts

But I'd like to see the usage of just a certain label. I can't get the right syntax.

Any suggestions?

gam config csv_output_row_filter "name:regex:^PutLabelNameHere$"all users print labels showcounts

Thanks a lot Ross. I'm running it now. I was hoping it would be faster than an all labels report, but it doesn't seem so.

You can speed it up some by adding useronly to the command if it's a user label you're looking for.

Is this a one-off issue or will this be a recurring process?

It's recurring. We need users to tag emails with this certain label and want to check compliance over the next few months. I'm a gam noob so not sure how to add useronly to the command?

Is it an existing system label or one of Gmail's built in labels?

It's a label I pushed to all users with gam all users label "CERTAINLABEL"

And what happens if the user decides to delete that label?

The label is being leveraged for a future project containing the tagged emails. If the user deletes the label, then they don't get the emails, and they lose out on their data being saved.

CK,

I'm working on this to allow you to select the labels:
gam all users print labels showcounts labellist "'LabelName1','LabelName2'"
