Get User info from Numerical Google account ID

What

In google cloud, there are some systems (namely composer) that display users by their Numerical ID in logs

Redacted ID's

All the ID's have been changed from their original ones so no use trying to use this

This is made up of the below

          * ------------------------ Accounts Domain
          |              * -------- Numerical Identifier
          |              |
accounts.google.com:114108529276530960947

If anyone ever finds the Documentation on how these are made, or what the field names are, please get in contact
