C is correct. GCDS can use different rules to assign licenses based on LDAP query. GCDS can also (un)archive users the same way. A. The Directory API can't update license. License Manager API should be used. B. The only assignment rule available in the Google Admin console is based on the Org Unit. There is no way to choose based on directory attributes. D. Not efficient with 30,000 users and multiple changes in a given year

Why is it C if it doesn´t mention that they are using LDAP or Cloud Directory Sync. Just because of this I think it´s B.

I also do not think it is C because there is no reference to any LDAP solution being available, although in a 30,000 organisation is would be likely. But still....

https://support.google.com/a/answer/10148746?hl=en You can use Google Cloud Directory Sync (GCDS) to manage and synchronize licenses for users in your Google Account. On the Licenses page of Configuration Manager, click LDAP License Rules and then Add Rule. In the LDAP Query field, using LDAP query notation, specify the users on your LDAP directory that should be assigned the license. For details, go to Use LDAP search rules to synchronize data
