Class Entry (1.2.0)

public sealed class Entry : IMessage<Entry>, IEquatable<Entry>, IDeepCloneable<Entry>, IBufferMessage, IMessage

Entry Metadata. A Data Catalog Entry resource represents another resource in Google Cloud Platform (such as a BigQuery dataset or a Pub/Sub topic) or outside of Google Cloud Platform. Clients can use the linked_resource field in the Entry resource to refer to the original resource ID of the source system.

An Entry resource contains resource details, such as its schema. An Entry can also be used to attach flexible metadata, such as a [Tag][google.cloud.datacatalog.v1.Tag].

FQNs take two forms:

  • For non-regionalized resources:

{SYSTEM}:{PROJECT}.{PATH_TO_RESOURCE_SEPARATED_WITH_DOTS}

  • For regionalized resources:

{SYSTEM}:{PROJECT}.{LOCATION_ID}.{PATH_TO_RESOURCE_SEPARATED_WITH_DOTS}

Example for a DPMS table:

dataproc_metastore:project_id.location_id.instance_id.database_id.table_id

UserSpecifiedType

Currently, only FILESET enum value is allowed. All other entries created through Data Catalog must use user_specified_type.
