GSuite Classroom manager

[Sheridan]

Is there such a thing as an administrator view of the G Suite classrooms created on our domain? it would be handy to be able to view classrooms and who they've been assigned to, but I can't see anything in the admin console

GAM can do this.

Not in the console, but there are some third party alternatives.

C-Learning's look decent when I last saw a demo - UK company.

 

I've no comment on it's effectiveness, but there is also a Chrome option - https://gsuite.google.com/marketplace/app/classroom_manager/974978407354

 

Some of the bigger players, like Harpara, iBoss and others have options too.

 

Out of interest, are you closely synching to your MIS? If yes, you might want to look at SalamanderSoft.

Nothing from Google themselves though which is a shame

@Chris_Cook, could you put the Apps Script you created onto GitHub or similar? Is it in a state where it would be useful to others?

Unfortunately not. You might like to sign up to Cloud Connect Community and register to the 'Feature Ideas' section. You might find someone has already submitted such a request, or could add your own. A few ideas have been posted here on Edugeek to garner support. Unfortunately, I can no longer access the ideas section as I'm not with a school and it's doesn't allow access with personal Google accounts. Here's the link https://www.cloudconnectcommunity.com/ccc/ls/community/g-suite-chrome-feature-ideas.

Cheers for the ideas, looks like a third party app is the easiest fix!

After setting up GAMADV-XTD3 or PSGSuite it's very easy to get the information you need.

 

gam print courses > X:\Courses.csv

 

Get-GSCourse | Export-Csv -Path "X:\Courses.csv" -NoTypeInformation

 

or

 

Get-GSCourse -CourseStates ACTIVE | Sort-Object -Property Name | Export-Csv -Path "X:\Courses.csv" -NoTypeInformation

I do have a google sheet + apps script. Not sure its ready for GitHub yet, but I can share it if its wanted. Edited October 25, 2019 by Chris_Cook

Yeah this is annoying but is it a data/gdpr thing etc, you can't see the data and shouldn't be able to without creating a log ie adding yourself to the class, logging in as student/staff
