GAM Query by Org Unit

[tcarter0]

Running GAM 4.1.2. I know I've done this before, and either I'm having a mental lapse, or something isn't working. I need to get a list of ChromeOS devices in a specific org unit. Shouldn't this work?

gam print cros query orgUnitPath=/name_of_ou

Doesn't even work for root with just orgUnitPath=/

What does work for root is this:

gam print cros query org=/

But gam print cros query org=/name_of_ou does not work

Why does /org work only for root, and orgUnitPath doesn't work for anything? Tried those variations with single and double quotes:

gam print cros query "org=/name_of_ou"

gam print cros query 'org=/name_of_ou'

gam print cros query "orgUnitPath=/name_of_ou"

gam print cros query 'orgUnitPath=/name_of_ou'

Also tried with just the org value itself in single and double quotes. Also tried with the older syntax that's still in the documentation in some places, like query:orgUnitPath

I can do this: 

gam print cros full query serial_number

and get the full info for one of the devices in the org, and that info shows the field name as orgUnitPath and the value as /name_of_ou

So I'm putting it in the query the same way that it's given to me in GAM print output.

No, unfortunately there's no CrOS filter for OrgUnits. The query language is the same as it is in the CPanel:

Best you can do is print all devices to a text file and then filter locally.

Great, so you're saying it was a mental lapse. :-)

Google might consider making the filtering consistent. Filtering by org unit seems like a typical thing that people would want to do, and it is possible through the UI.

Thanks,
