Is the Admin SDK a part of Google APIs?

Question

I'm looking at this Google API nodejs client. I also looked at this list of supported Google APIs, and I noticed that the Admin SDK is not included in the list. I want to use the Directory API for managing Groups, but I'm wondering whether the Admin SDK is a part of Google APIs, or is it a different set of APIs overall?

Answer 1

The Admin SDK is indeed part of Google APIs. However, it's not clearly visible in the API Discovery service unless you switch to All Versions API view. Then, you can find the directory_v1, reports_v1 and email_migration_v2 APIs and their respective methods.

I faced this same confusion a few months ago as well.

Answer 2

Admin SDK is part of Google APIs. However, Admin SDK refers to a suite of Google Domain APIs. You will have to be a bit more specific with which API you are referring to (Directory API? Reports API?)
