Google Directory StrawberryGroups, users and members, worked for you
A companion works the 7 operations your Google Directory account exposes. It can create an user and create a group, and every one of those waits on an approval card showing the group before it changes.
Open the group. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Google Directory afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a group until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Google Directory exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 7 operations, 4 reads and 3 writes. In practice that means it can create an user, create a group and add a member to group, and work across the groups, users and members.
The Google Directory API stops at Google Directory. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Which Google Directory groups does a companion see?
4 of the 7 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can list users, list groups and get an user, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Google Directory's documentation.
The groups are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the users. A companion can hold all 7 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Google Directory admin becomes a queue you review.
- List Users
- List Groups
- Get User
- Get Group
Can it change a group without asking?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can create an user, create a group and add a member to group, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the group, the field and the new value before it lands in Google Directory.
Nothing in Google Directory is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the group exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Create User
- Create Group
- Add Member to Group
Can the groups pass run every Monday?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Google Directory groups pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The product and engineering playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the infrastructure checks, the Google Directory groups sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
