# Introduction
GAMADV-XTD3 is a free, open source command line tool for Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) Administrators to manage domain and user settings quickly and easily.

GAMADV-XTD3 is built with Python 3.

This page provides simple instructions for downloading, installing and starting to use GAMADV-XTD3.

GAMADV-XTD3 runs on all versions of Google Workspace; Google Apps Free Edition has limited API support and not all GAM commands work.

GAMADV-XTD3 is a rewrite/extension of Jay Lee's [GAM], without his efforts, this version wouldn't exist.

GAMADV-XTD3 is backwards compatible with [GAM], meaning that if your command works with regular GAM, it will also work with GAMADV-XTD3. There may be differences in output, but the syntax is compatible.

# Documentation
Documentation for GAMADV-XTD3 is hosted in the [GitHub GAMADV-XTD3 Wiki] and in Gam*.txt files.

# Mailing List / Discussion group
The GAM mailing list / discussion group is hosted on [Google Groups]. You can join the list and interact via email, or just post from the web itself.

# Chat Room

There is a public chat room hosted in Google Chat. [Instructions to join](https://github.com/GAM-team/GAM/wiki/GAM-Public-Chat-Room).

# Source Repository
The official GAMADV-XTD3 source repository is on [GitHub] in the master branch.

# Author
GAMADV-XTD3 is maintained by Ross Scroggs.

# Requirements
To run all commands properly, GAMADV-XTD3 requires three things:
* An API project which identifies your install of GAMADV-XTD3 to Google and keeps track of API quotas.
* Authorization to act as your G Suite Administrator in order to perform management functions like add users, modify group settings and membership and pull domain reports.
* A special service account that is authorized to act on behalf of your users in order to modify user-specific settings and data such as Drive files, Calendars and Gmail messages and settings like signatures.
