Output only. The relative resource name of the EntryGroup, in the format projects/{project_id_or_number}/locations/{locationId}/entryGroups/{entryGroupId}.
uid
string
Output only. System generated globally unique ID for the EntryGroup. If you delete and recreate the EntryGroup with the same name, this ID will be different.
Output only. The time when the EntryGroup was created.
Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and use 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".
Output only. The time when the EntryGroup was last updated.

description
string
Optional. Description of the EntryGroup.
displayName
string
Optional. User friendly display name.
labels
map (key: string, value: string)
Optional. User-defined labels for the EntryGroup.
An object containing a list of "key": value pairs. Example: { "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }.
etag
string
This checksum is computed by the service, and might be sent on update and delete requests to ensure the client has an up-to-date value before proceeding.
