support domain-wide backing up of Google Apps (G Suite) accounts

Open shireeshj opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

We can now backup GApps account's, one account at a time. It involves opening a browser window to grant OAuth2 privileges for each account that needs to be backed up.

I am wondering if we could have a feature to backup an entire GApps domain (or accounts listed in a config file), without having to grant OAuth2 privileges for each account.

This will allow us to schedule a cron job to backup all inboxes in of a domain periodically. We could schedule this on a cloud server such as AWS, where a windowing library isn't installed to open a browser window

I am aware password option can be used, but the moment someone changes his/her password, the backup might fail unless we remember to update it in the cron as well.
