{
  "commandType": enum (CommandType),
  "payload": string
}
Fields

enum (CommandType)

The type of command.
payload

string

The payload for the command, provide it only if command supports it. The following commands support adding payload:

  • SET_VOLUME: Payload is a stringified JSON object in the form: { "volume": 50 }. The volume has to be an integer in the range [0,100].
  • DEVICE_START_CRD_SESSION: Payload is optionally a stringified JSON object in the form: { "ackedUserPresence": true, "crdSessionType": string }. ackedUserPresence is a boolean. By default, ackedUserPresence is set to false. To start a Chrome Remote Desktop session for an active device, set ackedUserPresence to true. crdSessionType can only select from values private (which grants the remote admin exclusive control of the ChromeOS device) or shared (which allows the admin and the local user to share control of the ChromeOS device). If not set, crdSessionType defaults to shared.
  • REBOOT: Payload is a stringified JSON object in the form: { "user_session_delay_seconds": 300 }. The user_session_delay_seconds is the amount of seconds to wait before rebooting the device if a user is logged in. It has to be an integer in the range [0,300]. When payload is not present for reboot, 0 delay is the default. Note: This only applies if an actual user is logged in, including a Guest. If the device is in the login screen or in Kiosk mode the value is not respected and the device immediately reboots.
  • FETCH_SUPPORT_PACKET: Payload is optionally a stringified JSON object in the form: {"supportPacketDetails":{ "issueCaseId": optional_support_case_id_string, "issueDescription": optional_issue_description_string, "requestedDataCollectors": [<comma-separated list of data_collector_enums integer values>]}}
