I am unable to delete or update aliases via CSV file. It will properly modify the first alias in the CSV but subsequent aliases are not modified and I get the ERROR: 412: Concurrent email update. - conditionNotMet

I did just get a new computer but I installed the GAM msi file then copied my GAM folder from my previous computer, everything else seems to be working fine.


my powershell command is: gam csv $csv gam delete alias ~Aliases

My CSV file is

the powershell output is
Deleting alias testi...@domain1.com
gam :
At line:1 char:1
+ gam csv $csv gam delete alias ~Aliases
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:String) [], RemoteException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError
 
ERROR: 412: Concurrent email update. - conditionNotMet
Deleting alias testi...@domain1.com
ERROR: 412: Concurrent email update. - conditionNotMet
Deleting alias testi...@domain2.com
Using 3 processes...

The NativeCommandError is not a concern as it still processes the command, but powershell just doesn't understand.

After running the command only testi...@domain1.com is deleted the others remain.

Any help?

Dan,

Are both domain1.com and domain2.com part of the same customer id?
What does this do: gam csv $csv gam info alias ~Aliases

to GAM for G Suite
Yes both are domains in the same G Suite account. I can manually remove either alias domain with gam delete alias al...@domain1.com(or domain2.com) but as part of my deprovisioning process I'm either transferring all aliases to someone else or removing all aliases, so I have powershell pull the aliases from gam info user $user, and parse just the aliases into a csv file. Previously this have worked just fine, but moving computers seems to have caused something to stop working correctly, even though I've re-authed this computer and all the commands work except for the gam csv command. Is there any easy way to see what permissions I've authorized GAM to do maybe I missed one?

I suspect it's because you're trying to remove multiple aliases from the same user via separate, parallel API requests and the multiple updates to the user are conflicting.

Do you have a regular need to do this?

Yes I do have a regular need to do this. Whenever a person leaves our organization, we transfer their aliases to their replacement. My whole process is largely automated and this seemed like the best way to transfer multiple aliases. I can probably setup a loop to get around this limitation and pass singular commands for each alias if it's not possible to use the gam csv command.

Dan,

You can force single-threading for this command.
1) Set the environment variable GAM_THREADS = 1 (however you do that in PowerShell)
2) gam csv $csv gam delete alias ~Aliases 
3) Unset the environment variable

Thank you so much Ross, that worked perfectly.

The solution was to have: $env:GAM_THREADS=1
in the script above the gam CSV command then at the end I reverted it back to $env:GAM_THREADS=10 which is the default gam threads.

I tried re-running the gam csv command with commenting out #$env:GAM_THREADS=1 and it failed the same way as before.

Thanks again Ross!
