How to distinguish regular organizations from non-profit ones with Google API?

We have an app that's getting license info about our clients' Google organizations. We've been using SKU IDs before but now we've faced with non-profit organization and Google support says there's no SKU IDs for nonprofits.

We've been investigating a way to use ProductId instead but I see no suitable ProductIds for non profits here

For regular organizations we're using com.google.api.services.licensing Java package and something like

var productLicensing = new Licensing.Builder(HTTP_TRANSPORT, JSON_FACTORY, oAuth2Credentials)
    .setApplicationName(APPLICATION_NAME).build();
var request = productLicensing.licenseAssignments()
    .listForProductAndSku(productId, skuId, domain);
var assignments = request.execute();
// further operations

Is there any idea how we can distinguish regular organizations from non-profit ones using Google API? Do nonprofits have special ProductId?

Solution

  • Answer:

    I don't think there are product ids for Nonprofit licenses. Therefore, I don't think there's any API that will return this kind of information.

    I went ahead and filed a feature request in Issue Tracker to add productIds to Non-profit licenses:

    There's also a feature request to list all available products and SKUs. It might be useful in this kind of situations:
