Creates a customer for zero-touch enrollment.

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The parent resource ID in the format partners/[PARTNER_ID] that identifies the reseller.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

CreateCustomerRequest:
  customer:
    admin-emails: [string]
    company-id: string
    company-name: string
    google-workspace-account:
      customer-id: string
      pre-provisioning-tokens: [string]
    language-code: string
    name: string
    owner-emails: [string]
    skip-welcome-email: boolean
    terms-status: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r .customer admin-emails=et
    • Optional. Email address of customer's users in the admin role. Each email address must be associated with a Google Account.
    • Each invocation of this argument appends the given value to the array.

  • terms-status=diam
    • Output only. Whether any user from the company has accepted the latest Terms of Service (ToS). See TermsStatus.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.
