Imports a Customer from the Cloud Identity associated with the provided Cloud Identity ID or domain before a TransferEntitlements call. If a linked Customer already exists and overwrite_if_exists is true, it will update that Customer's data. Possible error codes: * PERMISSION_DENIED: * The reseller account making the request is different from the reseller account in the API request. * You are not authorized to import the customer. See https://support.google.com/channelservices/answer/9759265 * NOT_FOUND: Cloud Identity doesn't exist or was deleted. * INVALID_ARGUMENT: Required parameters are missing, or the auth_token is expired or invalid. * ALREADY_EXISTS: A customer already exists and has conflicting critical fields. Requires an overwrite. Return value: The Customer.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/apps.order scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/apps.order. You can set the scope for this method like this: cloudchannel1 --scope <scope> accounts channel-partner-links-customers-import ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The resource name of the reseller's account. Parent takes the format: accounts/{account_id} or accounts/{account_id}/channelPartnerLinks/{channel_partner_id}

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:

GoogleCloudChannelV1ImportCustomerRequest:
  auth-token: string
  channel-partner-id: string
  cloud-identity-id: string
  customer: string
  domain: string
  overwrite-if-exists: boolean

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 . auth-token=no
    • Optional. The super admin of the resold customer generates this token to authorize a reseller to access their Cloud Identity and purchase entitlements on their behalf. You can omit this token after authorization. See https://support.google.com/a/answer/7643790 for more details.
  • channel-partner-id=ipsum
    • Optional. Cloud Identity ID of a channel partner who will be the direct reseller for the customer's order. This field is required for 2-tier transfer scenarios and can be provided via the request Parent binding as well.
  • cloud-identity-id=accusam
    • Required. Customer's Cloud Identity ID
  • customer=takimata
    • Optional. Specifies the customer that will receive imported Cloud Identity information. Format: accounts/{account_id}/customers/{customer_id}
  • domain=consetetur
    • Required. Customer domain.
  • overwrite-if-exists=false
    • Required. Choose to overwrite an existing customer if found. This must be set to true if there is an existing customer with a conflicting region code or domain.

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.
