dataStoreIds[]

string

The data stores associated with this engine.

For SOLUTION_TYPE_SEARCH and SOLUTION_TYPE_RECOMMENDATION type of engines, they can only associate with at most one data store.

solutionType

enum (SolutionType)

Required. The solutions of the engine.
industryVertical

enum (IndustryVertical)

object (ChatEngineConfig)

Configurations for the Chat Engine. Only applicable if solutionType is SOLUTION_TYPE_CHAT.
searchEngineConfig

object (SearchEngineConfig)

Configurations for the Search Engine. Only applicable if solutionType is SOLUTION_TYPE_SEARCH.
Union field engine_metadata. Engine metadata to monitor the status of the engine. engine_metadata can be only one of the following:
