Do it in the reseller console and then see what the subscription looks like with a GAM command.

[Jay Lee]

You are running an old version of GAMADV. It's past time to upgrade to GAM7.

@Ross Scroggs seems like we need to update the subscription choices to include free. The discovery doc unfortunately doesn't have an enumerator for this field. If the API returns a sensible error for subscription strings it doesn't understand I'd rather let the API fail with its error then to hard code all string values GAM will accept.

After upgrading to GAM7 , will the option to add cloudidentity FREE work ?

[Ross Scroggs]

7.12.01

Added support for `plan free` in `gam create resoldsubscription`.

* The free plan is exclusive to the Cloud Identity SKU and does not incur any billing.

This version is available now; test and report.

Worked as expected , thank you so much

Now want the automatic license settings  OFF , which is ON by default

[Ross Scroggs]

There is no API support for that, thus gam can't help, you have to do it in the admin console.
