Adding User to Organization Unit and Group using Google Directory API

I am successful to create new user account using Google Directory API in .Net platform, but now I need to add that created user to Organization Unit and Group. I see the API details in this link to add the user to Organization Unit but any example showing insertion to Organization Unit would be greatly appreciated.

Updated with working code: Below is the code to create new user account using Directory API:

String serviceAccountEmail = "[email protected]";
                X509Certificate2 certificate = new X509Certificate2(@"C:\key.p12", "secret", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable);
                ServiceAccountCredential credential = new ServiceAccountCredential(new ServiceAccountCredential.Initializer(serviceAccountEmail)
                {
                    Scopes = new[]
                        {
                          DirectoryService.Scope.AdminDirectoryUser
                        },
                    User = "[email protected]",

                }.FromCertificate(certificate));

                var ser = new DirectoryService(new BaseClientService.Initializer()
                {
                    HttpClientInitializer = credential,
                    ApplicationName = "Google Account",
                });
                try
                {                           
                    var user = new Google.Apis.Admin.Directory.directory_v1.Data.User()
                    {
                        Name = new Google.Apis.Admin.Directory.directory_v1.Data.UserName()
                        {

                            GivenName = FirstName.Text,
                            FamilyName = LastName.Text
                        },
                        Password = password
                    };

                    User newUser = new User();
                    UserName newUserName = new UserName();
                    newUser.PrimaryEmail = Email.Text;
                    newUserName.GivenName = FirstName_txt.Text;
                    newUserName.FamilyName = LastName_txt.Text;
                    newUser.Name = newUserName;
                    newUser.Password = password;

                 //Adding User to OU:
                    newUser.OrgUnitPath = "/Employee";
                    User results = ser.Users.Insert(newUser).Execute();

                //Adding User to Group:
                   Member newMember = new Member();
                   newMember.Email = Email.Text;
                   newMember.Role = "MEMBER";
                   newMember.Kind = "admin#directory#member";
                   api.Members.Insert(newMember, "[email protected]").Execute();    

Any idea how to insert the created user in Organization Unit and Group using Directory API?


Solution 1:

To insert the new user into a Organization Unit just set the OU path when you create the user.

    User newUser = new User();
    UserName newUserName = new UserName();
    newUser.PrimaryEmail = Email.Text;
    newUserName.GivenName = FirstName_txt.Text;
    newUserName.FamilyName = LastName_txt.Text;
    newUser.Name = newUserName;
    newUser.Password = password;
    **newUser.OrgUnitPath ="\My\Organization\Unit\path\";**
    User results = ser.Users.Insert(newUser).Execute();

Now your user has been added to the OU path.

To add a member into a group see the following code.

    Member newMember = new Member();
    newMember.Email = userKey;//email of the user that you want to add
    newMember.Role = "MEMBER";
    newMember.Type = "USER";
    newMember.Kind = "admin#directory#member";

    ser.Members.Insert(newMember, "MyDestinationGroup@mydomain").Execute();

that's it.
Note: you must review the scopes for the correct permissions.
Hope this help you.
