i'm wondering if there is a way (through script or anything) to remotely remove the local profile of a user on a Chromebook managed through the Google-Admin-Console ? GAM has no option for that. and the Google-Admin-Console doesn't provide such option

There is the option of deleting the device itself from the domain using the [admin SDK](https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/v1/reference/mobiledevices/delete), however, if you have more than one profile in the device they will all be removed. The only way to remove individual ones is manually doing it. – AMolina Sep 26 '19 at 10:16

Deleting the device itself is not a solution for me, because we have to enroll the device again in our domain. And this is not practical for remote troubleshooting – korchix Sep 26 '19 at 10:17

Agreed, it would be problematic, you'll have to do it manually. – AMolina Sep 26 '19 at 10:19

I have found a solution for this, it's not the best solution, but it has solved the problem the user were facing.
In the admin console i have created a new OU and changed it's policy, so that when a user log out from the Chromebook in this OU, his local data will be erased automatically.
in this way i have deleted his local profile remotely and after he could log in successfully again, i moved his Chromebook back to the standard OU.
