Required. The resource name of the parent Entry Group: projects/{project}/locations/{location}/entryGroups/{entryGroup}.
Query parameters
Parameters
entryId
string
Required. Entry identifier. It has to be unique within an Entry Group.
Entries corresponding to Google Cloud resources use an Entry ID format based on full resource names. The format is a full resource name of the resource without the prefix double slashes in the API service name part of the full resource name. This allows retrieval of entries using their associated resource name.
For example, if the full resource name of a resource is //library.googleapis.com/shelves/shelf1/books/book2, then the suggested entryId is library.googleapis.com/shelves/shelf1/books/book2.
It is also suggested to follow the same convention for entries corresponding to resources from providers or systems other than Google Cloud.
