It is possible now. I figured it out after some trial and error. I don't
know if it was a month ago when you originally posted, but I'm replying
just in case you still need help or in case someone else finds this thread
like I did wondering how to do it.
You have to create the labels with the
`gdata.apps.emailsettings.client.EmailSettingsClient` object before you
upload the emails. You also have to create each level one at a time.
Below is an example in Python. After you do that then you just specify the
full label ('mylabel/stuff/magic') when you upload your emails with the
migration API.
from gdata.apps.emailsettings.client import EmailSettingsClient
if __name__ == "__main__":
client = EmailSettingsClient(domain="mydomain.com")
client.ClientLogin(email="[email protected]",
password="mypassword",
# The source can be anything you want.
source="MyDomain-TestApp-v1")
# Create nested labels for the [email protected]
#
# mylabel
# stuff
# magic
client.create_label("testaccount", "mylabel")
client.create_label("testaccount", "mylabel/stuff")
client.create_label("testaccount", "mylabel/stuff/magic")
