Bulk import of user events. Request processing might be synchronous. Events that already exist are skipped. Use this method for backfilling historical user events.
Operation.response is of type ImportResponse. Note that it is possible for a subset of the items to be successfully inserted. Operation.metadata is of type ImportMetadata.
