Allow export of Mac addresses from Google Enterprise Console

Reported by amandawu...@gmail.com, Jan 5 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. no steps necessary
2. 
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
Google console allows export of MEIDs, but in a school environment it would be very helpful if we could export mac addresses tied to serial number.  

What went wrong?
We are looking at implementing network access control and need to add our chromebooks Mac addresses to mark them as known good devices.  There's no native way to pull this information from the console.

I know add ons exist to do this, but our district policy does not allow drive add ons so I can't use it. (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromebookinventory/iifofihmahmlokfnajjngehfnilmdmei?hl=en) 

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 55.0.2883.87  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

This is possible today with a combination of chrome.deviceAttribtues and Directory APIs.

Should also be accessible via 3rd party plugins such as chromebookinventory.

Our district policy doesn't allow for me or anyone to use add ons like chromebookinventory because add ons are all or nothing (can't do a white/blacklist), and many don't adhere to our student privacy guidelines.  

Unfortunately I have no idea what to do with the 'combination of chrome.deviceAttribtues and Directory APIs.'

thanks anyway for considering.
Actually apologies, to get all MAC addresses you only need the Directory API. Just make a query to get all devices and it should give you all devices enrolled in your domain along with their MAC addresses.

I wish i knew how to use the API to our advantage.  Is there any documentation for a total newb who has never touched an API?

For perspective, managing Chrome devices is about 5% of my job in our K12 environment.  I was hoping it could be supported in the console like MEIDs are.  
More than happy to help here, though this is the wrong place for it.

+Edward can you please help carry this through our support channel?
