Using "GAM info user" in Powershell

[Skylar Ragan]

I'm having a difficult time figuring out how to parse the data from 

GAM info user example@domain.com

in a way that Powershell understands.

Specifically, I want to get the email address for a user's manager as listed in Google and write it to a variable so that I can use it in other functions later in the script. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

gam print users user <email address> > output.csv

Then you can use that csv file in your batch script to pull out the information needed.  You could probably do some piping as well...

Kevin: Unfortunately the output of that command doesn't include the Relations/Manager email address that I'm trying to get.

Jay: When I run that it just returns the primary email address associated with the email I specified (which was already the primary address, so I just got back the same email that I queried).

[Jay Lee]

That exercise was left to the reader :-) Add "relations" to the command to also return user relations (which manager should be one of.
