Hello,

               Hope this email finds you well.

I am trying to empty up a couple of user’s google drive in my domain (clean everything) but my commands do not work.

 

I could clear the trash successfully using “gam user username empty drivetrash”

 

But when I try to delete all files from their drive the command doesn’t work. I tried the below:

 

 

gam user username delete drivefile all_items

 

gam user username trash drivefile all_items

 

gam user username purge drivefile all_items

 

 

I get the error:

Drive File/Folder ID: all_items, Trash Failed: Does not exist

 

 

What am I doing wrong. Can you please help me here? I want to delete all items from user’s drive and move them to trash.

Harshit,

all_items is an Advanced Gam (https://github.com/taers232c/GAMADV-X) or (https://github.com/taers232c/GAMADV-XTD) option, what version are you using?

Harshit,

Do this: gam version

GAM 4.48.58 - https://github.com/taers232c/GAMADV-X

Ross Scroggs <ross.s...@gmail.com>

Python 2.7.14 64-bit final

google-api-python-client 1.6.4

oauth2client 4.1.2

Darwin-15.6.0-x86_64-i386-64bit x86_64

Path: /Users/admin/Documents/GoogleApps/GAM


You should see something like this if you have Advanced Gam.

Ross

Harshit,

That is a very old version that doesn't support the feature you want, you need to upgrade.
After upgrading, do the following to bring your authorizations up to date.
gam update project
gam oauth create
gam user us...@domain.com check serviceaccount

               Just confirming. Would the commands in the very beginning of this mail chain work once I update my GAM version?

Yes although you might replace all_items with my_items as you can't delete files you don't own.

Ross,

               I wanted the command to remote delete other users files in their drive. So would all_items won’t work?

I am the admin of my domain so I want to delete my domain user’s drive files. Clean up the whole drive

Harshit,

You want to delete files the user owns; no problem.
Is this right? You have a user that has shared a folder and other users have written to that shared folder; you want to delete those files?

Yes Ross.

Clean up of a different user’s files is a part of the cleanup process for a failed migration of drive from a different domain to our domain.

Harshit,

 

You want to delete files the user owns; no problem.

Is this right? You have a user that has shared a folder and other users have written to that shared folder; you want to delete those files?

I am the admin of my domain so I want to delete my domain user’s drive files. Clean up the whole drive

Harshit,

 

That is a very old version that doesn't support the feature you want, you need to upgrade.

After upgrading, do the following to bring your authorizations up to date.

gam update project

gam oauth create

gam user us...@domain.com check serviceaccount

Python 2.7.14 64-bit final

You could do something like this:

gam redirect csv ./userfiles.csv user us...@domain.com print filelist all_items fields id,title,owners


Look at userfiles.csv, make sure that you want to delete everything.


gam redirect stdout ./userdelete.lst redirect stderr stdout csv userfiles.csv gam user ~owners.0.emailAddress delete drivefile ~id


Test!
