Some products and features are in the process of being renamed. Generative playbook and flow features are also being migrated to a single consolidated console. See the details.
Optional. The Google Cloud Storage URI to export the flow to. The format of this URI must be gs://<bucket-name>/<object-name>. If left unspecified, the serialized flow is returned inline.
Dialogflow performs a write operation for the Cloud Storage object on the caller's behalf, so your request authentication must have write permissions for the object. For more information, see Dialogflow access control.
includeReferencedFlows
boolean
Optional. Whether to export flows referenced by the specified flow.
Response body
