Use this method to create a connection profile in a project and location.
HTTP request
POST https://datastream.googleapis.com/v1/{parent}/connectionProfiles
Path parameters
Parameters
parent
string
Required. The parent that owns the collection of ConnectionProfiles.
Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource parent:
datastream.connectionProfiles.create
Query parameters
Parameters
connectionProfileId
string
Required. The connection profile identifier.
requestId
string
Optional. A request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed. The server will guarantee that for at least 60 minutes since the first request.
For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments.
The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000).
validateOnly
boolean
Optional. Only validate the connection profile, but don't create any resources. The default is false.
force
boolean
Optional. Create the connection profile without validating it.
