Wipes the user's account on a device. Other data on the device that is not associated with the user's work account is not affected. For example, if a Gmail app is installed on a device that is used for personal and work purposes, and the user is logged in to the Gmail app with their personal account as well as their work account, wiping the "deviceUser" by their work administrator will not affect their personal account within Gmail or other apps such as Photos.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-identity.devices scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-identity.devices. You can set the scope for this method like this: cloudidentity1 --scope <scope> devices device-users-wipe ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <name> (string)
    • Required. Resource name of the Device in format: devices/{device}/deviceUsers/{device_user}, where device is the unique ID assigned to the Device, and device_user is the unique ID assigned to the User.

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:

GoogleAppsCloudidentityDevicesV1WipeDeviceUserRequest:
  customer: 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=sadipscing
    • Optional. Resource name of the customer. If you're using this API for your own organization, use customers/my_customer If you're using this API to manage another organization, use customers/{customer}, where customer is the customer to whom the device belongs.

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.
