How can I get more detail from get-gauser

[coolsammy]

Please I need help with getting more information about a single user. When I run (get-gauser -userkey $someuser ) I only get GivenName, FamilyName, PrimaryEmail, Aliases, Suspended, OrgUnitPath, LastLoginTime, UserObject.
How do I get the other information like PhoneNumber, Title, Department, creation time and if possible custom user fields that I created?

Thank you.

Hey, sorry for the delay. Family stuff.

Keeping in mind this is all a wrapper for the Google APIs, Get-GAUser stores most of the extended user information that is returned in that UserObject property, which is itself a complex object - that's where you'll find things like the creation time. A full overview of that object can be found here.

For the other, custom information you'll need to work with the Schema resources using the GASchema cmdlets, specifically Get-GASchema cmdlet. It's been a while since I've used it, but if I recall correctly you need to know the specific schema key you are looking to gather information for, and if you don't know that you'll need to use the syntax to list all the available schema resources with the -All parameter.

I'm not near a PC with gshell installed at the moment, but if that's not enough to get you going or if you can't get it working, let me know. Keep in mind you'll need to have set up the proper permissions to view all that data anyways. Either way - let me know.

Thanks for the explanation but could you help with a example of how this information could be gotten.
