Policy API overview
The Cloud Identity Policy API is a read-only API that can be used to
programmatically view the settings that administrators can configure through the
Admin console for a Google Workspace domain.
The Cloud Identity Policy API provides a different view of policies than the Admin
console. For a given setting, the Admin console displays a
reduced setting value
for an organization unit or group, while the Cloud Identity Policy API provide
the underlying source of truth policies where a value has been explicitly set.
Only a super administrator can use the Cloud Identity Policy API.
