What gws-admin-reports does

gws-admin-reports runs Google Workspace Admin Reports operations. It can retrieve activity records for an account and its applications, fetch usage reports for customers, users, or entities, and start or stop activity notification channels.

Before a call, the command checks that Google Workspace CLI is installed and authentication is configured. It then directs the agent to inspect available operations and the chosen method’s schema with gws schema. Use --params for query or path parameters, --json for a request body, and pagination flags when needed. You need gws and configured authentication. The command also relies on ../gws-shared/SKILL.md for shared auth and security guidance; if it is missing, run gws generate-skills first.

What it helps with

  • retrieve an application or account activity log
  • request an account usage report
  • get usage statistics for users or entities
  • start or stop activity notifications

Example prompts for the agent

  • Use /gws-admin-reports to find available Admin Reports operations and retrieve an activity log.
  • Run /gws-admin-reports customerUsageReports get to fetch an account usage report.
  • Request usage data for account users with /gws-admin-reports userUsageReport get.
