Added option ownername to gam info|print courses to have GAM display the course owners full name;
there is an extra API call per course to get the name.
Added option creatorname to gam print course-announcements|course-materials|course-works to have
GAM display the item creators full name; there is an extra API call per course to get the name.
After creating a group, it may be sometime, e.g. 30-45 seconds, before members can
successfully be added to the group even though the API reported that the group was created.
The following options can be used with gam create group to verify that the group is actually ready to be updated.
This will be most useful in scripts that are used to create and then populate groups.
verifycreationretries <Integer> - Verify group creation, defaults to 0, no verification performed, range 0-20
verifycreationinitialdelay <Integer> - Number of seconds to delay before first verification performed, defaults to 5, range 0-60
verifycreationretrydelay <Integer> - Number of seconds to delay between verificaton retries, defaults to 5, range 1-60
If you have a script that deletes a group and then immediately tries to create a new group with the same email address,
you may run into issues. There seems to be a 30-45 second window after the deletion in which a couple
of strange errors can occur on the creation: Resource not found and Duplicate.
The following options can be used with gam create group to handle these errors. This will be most useful
in scripts that are used to delete and then immediately recreate groups.
recentdeleteretries <Integer> - Handle group delete/create errors, defaults to 0, no errors handled, range 0-20
recentdeleteretrydelay <Integer> - Number of seconds to delay between retries, defaults to 5, range 1-60
Added the following to <RowValueFilter> used in CSV input/output row filtering; these are
synonyms for count and countrange.
[(any|all):]number<Operator><Number>|
[(any|all):]numberrange!=<Number>/<Number>|
[(any|all):]numberrange=<Number>/<Number>|
