Specify scopes for oauth in text file

[Drew Boone]

Is it possible to specify the scopes to be used the oauth create command in a text file? I've tried the following but I get a syntax error.

gam oauth create scopes scopes.txt

Organizational policy requires that we delete oauth after each session and that we use limited scopes, but the process of selecting scopes each time I reauthorize is a bit of a pain.

See: https://github.com/GAM-team/GAM/wiki/Authorization#create-client-credentials

You could have a variable that contains the list of scopes and then do:

gam oauth create admin <EmailAddress> scopes "$scopes"

I figured that might be the case, but I was hopeful for some other kind of magic. Thanks for your help, Ross.

gam oauth create admin <EmailAddress> scopes "$(cat scopes.txt)"

assuming you're using a decent shell like Bash. I'm sure Powershell has some equivalent capability that's 5x as many characters in length though :-)

LOL, I like that even better, Jay.
