How can I use the google API to retrieve custom roles for a user in a google group?
I noticed that within the "Roles" configuration UI in a Google Group, it is possible to add a custom role, by clicking the [CREATE] button. I can then assign that custom role to members of the google group.
However, when I use the API to retrieve the members of the group, it only shows one of the three built-in roles (OWNER, MEMBER and MANAGER), and not the custom roles. Is there an API call I can make to retrieve custom roles for the member of a google group?
Here is an excerpt of the code I'm using in nodeJs. Note that I'm using v1 of the directory API:
async function getGroupMembers(auth) {
try {
const admin = await google.admin({ version: 'directory_v1', auth });
admin.members.list({groupKey}, (err, payload) => {
if (err) {
console.log('The list users API returned an error: ', err);
resolve({ groups: , users: });
}
const data = payload.data;
const groups = ;
const users = ;
for (const member of data.members) {
console.log(member);
if (member.type === 'USER') users.push(member.email);
else if (member.type === 'GROUP') groups.push(member.email);
}
resolve({groups, users});
});
} catch(error) {
console.log("Error getting group members: ", error);
resolve({ groups: , users: });
}
}
Here is a sample of what I see when I console.log the member variable:
{ kind: 'admin#directory#member',
etag: '"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"',
id: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
email: 'noreply@somedomain.com',
role: 'OWNER',
type: 'USER',
status: 'ACTIVE' }
But I hope to be able to see something like this:
{ kind: 'admin#directory#member',
etag: '"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"',
id: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
email: 'noreply@somedomain.com',
role: ['OWNER', 'MYCUSTOMROLE'],
type: 'USER',
status: 'ACTIVE' }
