Hello All, much thanks to Jay Lee and Ross Scroggs for all your hard work. I've found much use from this utility. 

I have a large number of Groups to moderate for spam, some of the groups are for customer facing order requests and related sales type communications. Multiple times a day, I need to check the spam moderation queue for these groups to make sure no sales inquiries are being held up as possible spam. I was wondering, is it possible to query a group for pending messages in the moderation queue? That way I could script it and have it alert me when messages get held up. I did check the wiki and the wonderful GAM Cheat Sheet but couldn't find anything for this. I suppose it's possible the API might not support this type of query. 

Any response is appreciated.

Thanks

Unfortunately API doesn't support this. However an email should be sent to group owners when this happens so you may be able to route that.

Ok, thanks for the answer. I was afraid it would be an API limitation.

It would be very convenient if we could approve pending group messages via API.

Huan Li,

Direct your request to Google, if they supply an API to do what you want, then Gam can help by calling the API for you.

Was there any update in the Google API since then ? (we are in 2020)
Can the Google API list and moderate the Pending Messages ?

thanks !
