Path parameters

Parameters

Parameters
`project`	`string` Project ID for this request.

project

string

Project ID for this request.

Query parameters

Parameters

Parameters
`requestId`	`string` An optional 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. 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`).

requestId

string

An optional 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.

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).

Fields
`kind`	`string` [Output Only] Type of resource. Always `compute#targetHttpsProxy` for target HTTPS proxies.
`id`	`string (uint64 format)` [Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
`creationTimestamp`	`string` [Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
`name`	`string` Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
`description`	`string` An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
`selfLink`	`string` [Output Only] Server-defined URL for the resource.
`urlMap`	`string` A fully-qualified or valid partial URL to the UrlMap resource that defines the mapping from URL to the BackendService. For example, the following are all valid URLs for specifying a URL map: `https://www.googleapis.compute/v1/projects/project/global/urlMaps/url-map` `projects/project/global/urlMaps/url-map` `global/urlMaps/url-map` Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource `urlMap`: `compute.urlMaps.use`
`sslCertificates[]`	`string` URLs to SslCertificate resources that are used to authenticate connections between users and the load balancer. At least one SSL certificate must be specified. SslCertificates do not apply when the load balancing scheme is set to INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED. The URLs should refer to a SSL Certificate resource or Certificate Manager Certificate resource. Mixing Classic Certificates and Certificate Manager Certificates is not allowed. Certificate Manager Certificates must include the certificatemanager API. Certificate Manager Certificates are not supported by Global external Application Load Balancer or Classic Application Load Balancer, use certificateMap instead. Currently, you may specify up to 15 Classic SSL Certificates. Certificate Manager Certificates accepted formats are: `//certificatemanager.googleapis.com/projects/{project}/locations/{location}/certificates/{resourceName}`. `https://certificatemanager.googleapis.com/v1alpha1/projects/{project}/locations/{location}/certificates/{resourceName}`. Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource `sslCertificates`: `compute.sslCertificates.get`
`certificateMap`	`string` URL of a certificate map that identifies a certificate map associated with the given target proxy. This field can only be set for Global external Application Load Balancer or Classic Application Load Balancer. For other products use Certificate Manager Certificates instead. If set, sslCertificates will be ignored. Accepted format is `//certificatemanager.googleapis.com/projects/{project}/locations/{location}/certificateMaps/{resourceName}`. Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource `certificateMap`: `certificatemanager.certmaps.use`
`quicOverride`	`enum` Specifies the QUIC override policy for this TargetHttpsProxy resource. This setting determines whether the load balancer attempts to negotiate QUIC with clients. You can specify `NONE`, `ENABLE`, or `DISABLE`. When `quic-override` is set to `NONE`, Google manages whether QUIC is used. When `quic-override` is set to `ENABLE`, the load balancer uses QUIC when possible. When `quic-override` is set to `DISABLE`, the load balancer doesn't use QUIC. If the `quic-override` flag is not specified, `NONE` is implied.
`sslPolicy`	`string` URL of SslPolicy resource that will be associated with the TargetHttpsProxy resource. If not set, the TargetHttpsProxy resource has no SSL policy configured. Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource `sslPolicy`: `compute.sslPolicies.use`
`region`	`string` [Output Only] URL of the region where the regional TargetHttpsProxy resides. This field is not applicable to global TargetHttpsProxies.
`proxyBind`	`boolean` This field only applies when the forwarding rule that references this target proxy has a `loadBalancingScheme` set to `INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED`. When this field is set to `true`, Envoy proxies set up inbound traffic interception and bind to the IP address and port specified in the forwarding rule. This is generally useful when using Traffic Director to configure Envoy as a gateway or middle proxy (in other words, not a sidecar proxy). The Envoy proxy listens for inbound requests and handles requests when it receives them. The default is `false`.
`serverTlsPolicy`	`string` Optional. A URL referring to a networksecurity.ServerTlsPolicy resource that describes how the proxy should authenticate inbound traffic. `serverTlsPolicy` only applies to a global `TargetHttpsProxy` attached to `globalForwardingRules` with the `loadBalancingScheme` set to `INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED` or `EXTERNAL` or `EXTERNAL_MANAGED`. For details which `ServerTlsPolicy` resources are accepted with `INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED` and which with `EXTERNAL`, `EXTERNAL_MANAGED` `loadBalancingScheme` consult `ServerTlsPolicy` documentation. If left blank, communications are not encrypted. Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource `serverTlsPolicy`: `networksecurity.serverTlsPolicies.use`
`authorizationPolicy`	`string` Optional. A URL referring to a networksecurity.AuthorizationPolicy resource that describes how the proxy should authorize inbound traffic. If left blank, access will not be restricted by an authorization policy. Refer to the `AuthorizationPolicy` resource for additional details. `authorizationPolicy` only applies to a global `TargetHttpsProxy` attached to `globalForwardingRules` with the `loadBalancingScheme` set to `INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED`. Note: This field currently has no impact. Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource `authorizationPolicy`: `networksecurity.authorizationPolicies.use`
`fingerprint`	`string (bytes format)` Fingerprint of this resource. A hash of the contents stored in this object. This field is used in optimistic locking. This field will be ignored when inserting a `TargetHttpsProxy`. An up-to-date fingerprint must be provided in order to patch the TargetHttpsProxy; otherwise, the request will fail with error `412 conditionNotMet`. To see the latest fingerprint, make a `get()` request to retrieve the TargetHttpsProxy. A base64-encoded string.
`httpKeepAliveTimeoutSec`	`integer` Specifies how long to keep a connection open, after completing a response, while there is no matching traffic (in seconds). If an HTTP keep-alive is not specified, a default value (610 seconds) will be used. For global external Application Load Balancers, the minimum allowed value is 5 seconds and the maximum allowed value is 1200 seconds. For classic Application Load Balancers, this option is not supported.
`tlsEarlyData`	`enum` Specifies whether TLS 1.3 0-RTT Data ("Early Data") should be accepted for this service. Early Data allows a TLS resumption handshake to include the initial application payload (a HTTP request) alongside the handshake, reducing the effective round trips to "zero". This applies to TLS 1.3 connections over TCP (HTTP/2) as well as over UDP (QUIC/h3). This can improve application performance, especially on networks where interruptions may be common, such as on mobile. Requests with Early Data will have the "Early-Data" HTTP header set on the request, with a value of "1", to allow the backend to determine whether Early Data was included. Note: TLS Early Data may allow requests to be replayed, as the data is sent to the backend before the handshake has fully completed. Applications that allow idempotent HTTP methods to make non-idempotent changes, such as a GET request updating a database, should not accept Early Data on those requests, and reject requests with the "Early-Data: 1" HTTP header by returning a HTTP 425 (Too Early) status code, in order to remain RFC compliant. The default value is DISABLED.

Response body

Represents an Operation resource.

Google Compute Engine has three Operation resources:

You can use an operation resource to manage asynchronous API requests. For more information, read Handling API responses.

Operations can be global, regional or zonal.

For global operations, use the globalOperations resource.
For regional operations, use the regionOperations resource.
For zonal operations, use the zoneOperations resource.

For more information, read Global, Regional, and Zonal Resources.

Note that completed Operation resources have a limited retention period.

If successful, the response body contains data with the following structure:

`warnings[].data[].key`	`string` [Output Only] A key that provides more detail on the warning being returned. For example, for warnings where there are no results in a list request for a particular zone, this key might be `scope` and the key value might be the zone name. Other examples might be a key indicating a deprecated resource and a suggested replacement, or a warning about invalid network settings (for example, if an instance attempts to perform IP forwarding but is not enabled for IP forwarding).
`warnings[].data[].value`	`string` [Output Only] A warning data value corresponding to the key.
`httpErrorStatusCode`	`integer` [Output Only] If the operation fails, this field contains the HTTP error status code that was returned. For example, a `404` means the resource was not found.
`httpErrorMessage`	`string` [Output Only] If the operation fails, this field contains the HTTP error message that was returned, such as `NOT FOUND`.
`selfLink`	`string` [Output Only] Server-defined URL for the resource.
`region`	`string` [Output Only] The URL of the region where the operation resides. Only applicable when performing regional operations.
`description`	`string` [Output Only] A textual description of the operation, which is set when the operation is created.
`operationGroupId`	`string` [Output Only] An ID that represents a group of operations, such as when a group of operations results from a `bulkInsert` API request.
Union field `metadata`. [Output Only] Service-specific metadata attached to this operation. `metadata` can be only one of the following:
`setCommonInstanceMetadataOperationMetadata`	`object` [Output Only] If the operation is for projects.setCommonInstanceMetadata, this field will contain information on all underlying zonal actions and their state.

`setCommonInstanceMetadataOperationMetadata.perLocationOperations[].error`	`object` [Output Only] If state is `ABANDONED` or `FAILED`, this field is populated.
`setCommonInstanceMetadataOperationMetadata.perLocationOperations[].error.code`	`integer` The status code, which should be an enum value of `google.rpc.Code`.
`setCommonInstanceMetadataOperationMetadata.perLocationOperations[].error.message`	`string` A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the `google.rpc.Status.details` field, or localized by the client.
`setCommonInstanceMetadataOperationMetadata.perLocationOperations[].error.details[]`	`object` A list of messages that carry the error details. There is a common set of message types for APIs to use. An object containing fields of an arbitrary type. An additional field `"@type"` contains a URI identifying the type. Example: `{ "id": 1234, "@type": "types.example.com/standard/id" }`.
