Fixed bug in gam <UserTypeEntity> print|show messages ... showattachments|saveattachments where
some attachments were not recognized.

6.15.00
Updated processing of teamdrive <SharedDriveName> in the following commands.
Previously, if there were multiple Shared Drives with the same <SharedDriveName>, GAM silently processed
the first one which may not have been the desired action. Now, a message is issued listing the multiple <DriveFileIDs> and
no processing is performed. Determine which Shared Drive ID is desired and reissue the command with teamdriveid <DriveFileID>.
gam <UserTypeEntity> print filelist select teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> print|show filecounts select teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> print|show filetree select teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> update teamdrive teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> delete teamdrive teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> hide teamdrive teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> unhide teamdrive teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> info teamdrive teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> print emptydrivefolders teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> delete emptydrivefolders teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
gam <UserTypeEntity> empty drivetrash teamdrive <SharedDriveName>
Added the following commands to transfer top level ACLs from one Shared Drive to another.
gam [<UserTypeEntity>] copy teamdriveacls <SharedDriveEntity> to <SharedDriveEntity>
[adminaccess|asadmin]
[showpermissionsmessages [<Boolean>]]
[excludepermissionsfromdomains <DomainNameList>]
(mappermissionsdomain <DomainName> <DomainName>)*
gam [<UserTypeEntity>] sync teamdriveacls <SharedDriveEntity> with <SharedDriveEntity>
[adminaccess|asadmin]
[showpermissionsmessages [<Boolean>]]
[excludepermissionsfromdomains <DomainNameList>]
(mappermissionsdomain <DomainName> <DomainName>)*
Added option shownopermissionsdrives false|true|only to gam <UserTypeEntity> print|show teamdriveacls that
controls whether Shared Drives with no permissions are displayed.
false- Do not display Shared Drives with no permissions; this is the defaulttrue- Display Shared Drives with no permissions in addition to Shared Drives with permissionsonly- Display only Shared Drives with no permissions
Added the option mappermissionsdomain <DomainName1> <DomainName2> to gam <UserTypeEntity> copy|move drivefile <DriveFileEntity> that maps <DomainName1> to <DomainName2> in any non-inherited permissions that are copied. The option can be specified multiple times to provide different mappings.
- Thanks to Kevin Sanghvi for suggesting this enhancement.
Updated gam <UserTypeEntity> delete othercontacts to retry the delete step when
notFound errors are returned after the update step.
Fixed bug in gam courses <CourseEntity> add|remove students|teachers that caused API
call retries to fail with the following error:
Temporary error: notFound - @CourseNotFound The course was not found.
Improved performance when converting Shared Drive names to IDs.
Updated code to handle Shared Drive names that contain single quotes.* Updated google-api-python-client to version 2.35.0
