stackql is a dev tool that allows you to query, manage, and perform analytics against cloud and SaaS resources in real time using SQL, which developers and analysts can use for CSPM, assurance, user access management reporting, IaC, XOps and more.

The googleadmin StackQL provider is now available, which allows you to query, provision, or manage Google Workspace users, groups, devices, and more using StackQL. The googleadmin provider can be used with the google provider or other cloud providers to generate entitlements reports (or user access reviews) where Google Workspace identites are used in identity federation or IAM bindings.

The full documentation on how to use a Google service account for authentication to the googleadmin provider is available here. Information about the directory resources available and their fields and methods, is available in the StackQL Provider Registry Docs.

Simple Query

A simple query using the googleadmin provider is shown here:

SELECT
primaryEmail,
lastLoginTime
FROM
googleadmin.directory.users
WHERE domain = 'stackql.io'
AND primaryEmail = 'javen@stackql.io';

which would return the following results...

|------------------|--------------------------|                                                                                                                                                   
| primaryEmail | lastLoginTime |

Example Query Using Built-In Functions

Here is an example using built-in functions in StackQL (more information about built-in functions is available in the StackQL docs):

SELECT
primaryEmail,
json_extract(name, '$.fullName') as full_name,
lastLoginTime
FROM
googleadmin.directory.users
WHERE domain = 'stackql.io'
AND primaryEmail = 'javen@stackql.io';

which would return results like this...

|------------------|--------------|--------------------------|                                                                                                                                    
| primaryEmail | full_name | lastLoginTime |

Example Query Using Aggregate Functions

Here is an example of a summary query that could be useful:

SELECT
isAdmin,
COUNT(*) as num_admins
FROM
googleadmin.directory.users
WHERE domain = 'stackql.io'
GROUP BY isAdmin

results in...

|---------|------------|                                                                                                                                                                          
| isAdmin | num_admins |
|---------|------------|
| false | 9 |
|---------|------------|
| true | 2 |
|---------|------------|

Entitlements Report Using a LEFT JOIN with the google provider

Using the LEFT OUTER JOIN capability with StackQL, you can generate entitlements or user access management reports that span across Google Workspace as an Identity Provider (IdP) and a Google Cloud resource (including Organizations, Folders, Projects, and resources), such as:

SELECT 
split_part(json_extract(iam.members,'$[0]'), ':', 2) as member,
iam.role as role,
users.lastLoginTime
FROM google.cloudresourcemanager.organizations_iam_bindings iam
LEFT OUTER JOIN googleadmin.directory.users users
ON split_part(json_extract(iam.members,'$[0]'), ':', 2) = users.primaryEmail
WHERE users.domain = 'stackql.io'
AND iam.organizationsId = 141318256085
AND users.primaryEmail = 'javen@stackql.io';

which would return...
