Global Entry is only available if you enter the US Pre-Clearance area via the US check-in area.
If you are a US or Canadian passport holder, you can use the new Automated Passport Clearance machines in the US Pre-Clearance area if you are using the US transit area after arriving from an international flight. Similar to Global Entry, but you need to fill in your customs form still.
