Google Apps domain administrators have access to a number of APIs to automate their management activities or to integrate with third-party applications, including the Provisioning API to manage user accounts and groups, the Admin Audit API, Admin Settings API, and the Reporting API.

These APIs were only available in Google Apps for Business, Education and ISP editions but many administrators of the free version of Google Apps also requested access to them. I’m glad to say that we listened to your feedback and, starting today, we made the these APIs available to all Google Apps editions.

Please check the documentation as the starting point to explore the possibilities of the APIs and post on our forum if you have questions or comments.
