Get-GSUser output about psgsuite HOT 6 CLOSED

hey @IronKane2 - can you post some sample code? Based on your output, it looks like you're trying to cast the results to string, which by default returns the type name of the object being cast if there's no working ToString() method

Here's what I expect is happening by command in the below screenshot:

1. Run Get-GSUser and store in variable $user (defaults to the AdminEmail in the config)
2. Cast $user to string by surrounding it in quotes ("$user"), replicating your issue
3. Just run $user and get the full object back

from psgsuite.

You can do the same thing with almost any object lacking a ToString() method:

PS > $hash = @{}
PS > "$hash"

Output:

System.Collections.Hashtable

from psgsuite.

I figured out how to do it:
[Google.Apis.Admin.Directory.directory_v1.Data.User]$GAFE = Get-GSUser -User $Student.mail

I had to implicitly declare the variable type before loading it.

@IronKane2 shouldn't need to do that at all, you can see that not happening in my example above. An object will return the type name if you're casting it to string or implicitly declaring the variable as a string type when setting it, i.e. [string]$GAFE = Get-GSUser -User $Student.mail.

Try running the following and let me know if it works for you:

$GAFE = Get-GSUser -User $Student.mail
$GAFE

After a reboot all was well. thanks.

@IronKane2 sweet, glad to hear you're sorted out!
