Admin-sdk Error 400: Bad Request, badRequest

[erkolson]

Expected Behavior

I'm trying to use this example:
https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/v1/quickstart/go
I expect to see a list of users names and email addresses from my domain

Actual Behavior

I get an error from this line:
https://github.com/gsuitedevs/go-samples/blob/master/admin_sdk/directory/quickstart.go#L104

Unable to retrieve users in domain: googleapi: Error 400: Bad Request, badRequest

I am using ... .Customer("<my-domain>") ..., there are several users in the org that have email addresses in that domain.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Followed the G Suite wide delegation guide to get client credentials/private key:
   https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/v1/guides/delegation
2. Added the service requests to get domain users
3. Compile succeeds and run => error.

Specifications

• go1.10.2
• macOs 10.13.6

The quickstart uses user (3-legged) OAuth, not service accounts. Have you gotten that to work? When you use the special value "my_customer" for the customer ID, does that work?

[erkolson]

Thanks! I also get the same error when I used OAuth. When I paste the code from the web browser back in the terminal, I see this:

Saving credential file to: token.json
2018/09/19 13:25:29 Unable to retrieve users in domain: googleapi: Error 400: Bad Request, badRequest

When I use the "my_customer" value it says this:

Unable to retrieve users in domain: googleapi: Error 404: Domain not found., notFound

What is my_customer? I've read a good bit of the documentation and don't really understand how customers come into this.

[erickoledadevrel]

The value my_customer is a shortcut for referring to the G Suite organization you are a part of. Is the authorized user part of a G Suite domain, or is it a gmail.com account?

Closing due to inactivity.

for future folks who may see this, i hit this when querying the directory API trying list users. however the list users api requires a domain string be set

• verify this by trying the api
  

unfortunately the err doesn't tell you the field you're missing
