Hi Ross,

Is this an app script? Can you tell me more details about this? How to use?

There is no script here: the two web links point to GAM documentation.
You produce the CSV in Excel or an equivalent program.
You issue a single GAM command to read the CSV file and perform the deletes.

Hi there Ross,

I put the DeleteUsers.csv file in c:\gam folder, right?
I need more explanation of how to execute the command. What is the function of this "~User"?

Thank you,

Robby

Robby,

This link explains bulk operations: https://github.com/jay0lee/GAM/wiki/BulkOperations
This command uses that feature: gam csv DeleteUsers.csv gam delete user "~User"
"~User" is the name of the column in the CSV file that contains the data you want; for each line in the CSV file, that data replaces "~User".
You can put DeleteUsers.csv wherever you want; with no path information Gam will look in your current working folder.
If it is in another folder, include the full path: gam csv c:\SomeWhere\DeleteUsers.csv gam delete user "~User"
