Fields
name

string

Output only. The resource name of the entitlement. Entitlement names have the form providers/{providerId}/entitlements/{entitlement_id}.

account

string

Output only. The resource name of the account that this entitlement is based on, if any.

provider

string

Output only. The identifier of the service provider that this entitlement was created against. Each service provider is assigned a unique provider value when they onboard with Cloud Commerce platform.

product
(deprecated)

string

Output only. The identifier of the entity that was purchased. This may actually represent a product, quote, or offer. We strongly recommend that you use the following more explicit fields: productExternalName, quoteExternalName, or offer.

quoteExternalName

string

Output only. The identifier of the quote that was used to procure. Empty if the order is not purchased using a quote.

productExternalName

string

Output only. The identifier of the product that was procured.

plan

string

Output only. The identifier of the plan that was procured. Required if the product has plans.

offer

string

Output only. The name of the offer that was procured. Field is empty if order was not made using an offer. Format: 'projects/{project}/services/{service}/privateOffers/{offer-id}' OR 'projects/{project}/services/{service}/standardOffers/{offer-id}', depending on whether the offer is private or public. The {service} in the name is the listing service of the offer. It could be either the product service that the offer is referencing, or a generic private offer parent service. We recommend that you don't build your integration to rely on the meaning of this {service} part.

newOfferStartTime

string (Timestamp format)

Output only. The timestamp when the new offer becomes effective. This field is populated even if the entitlement isn't active yet. If there's no upcoming offer, the field is empty.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".

newPendingOffer

string

Output only. The name of the offer the entitlement is switching to upon a pending plan change. Only exists if the pending plan change is moving to an offer. This field isn't populated for entitlements which aren't active yet. Format: 'projects/{project}/services/{service}/privateOffers/{offer-id}' OR 'projects/{project}/services/{service}/standardOffers/{offer-id}', depending on whether the offer is private or public. The {service} in the name is the listing service of the offer. It could be either the product service that the offer is referencing, or a generic private offer parent service. We recommend that you don't build your integration to rely on the meaning of this {service} part.

Possible values include "unknown", "expired", "user-cancelled", "account-closed", "billing-disabled" (if the customer has manually disabled billing to their resources), "user-aborted", and "migrated" (if the entitlement has migrated across products). Values of this field are subject to change, and we recommend that you don't build your technical integration to rely on these fields.

EntitlementState

Indicates the current state of an entitlement.

Enums
ENTITLEMENT_STATE_UNSPECIFIED Default state of the entitlement. It's only set to this value when the entitlement is first created and has not been initialized.
ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVATION_REQUESTED

Indicates that the entitlement is being created and the backend has sent a notification to the provider for the activation approval.

If the provider approves, then the entitlement will transition to the EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVE state. Otherwise, the entitlement will be removed. Plan changes are not allowed in this state. Instead the entitlement is cancelled and re-created with a new plan name.

ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVE

Indicates that the entitlement is active. The procured item is now usable and any associated billing events will start occurring. Entitlements in this state WILL renew. The analogous state for an unexpired but non-renewing entitlement is ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_CANCELLATION.

In this state, the customer can decide to cancel the entitlement, which would change the state to EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_CANCELLATION, and then EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_CANCELLED.

The user can also request a change of plan, which will transition the state to EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_PLAN_CHANGE, and then back to EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVE.

ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_CANCELLATION

Indicates that the entitlement will expire at the end of its term. This could mean the customer has elected not to renew this entitlement or the customer elected to cancel an entitlement that only expires at term end.

The entitlement typically stays in this state if the entitlement/plan allows use of the underlying resource until the end of the current billing cycle. Once the billing cycle completes, the resource will transition to EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_CANCELLED state.

The resource cannot be modified during this state.

ENTITLEMENT_CANCELLED Indicates that the entitlement was cancelled. The entitlement can now be deleted.
ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_PLAN_CHANGE Indicates that the entitlement is currently active, but there is a pending plan change that is requested by the customer. The entitlement typically stays in this state, if the entitlement/plan requires the completion of the current billing cycle before the plan can be changed. Once the billing cycle completes, the resource will transition to EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVE, with its plan changed.
ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_PLAN_CHANGE_APPROVAL

Indicates that the entitlement is currently active, but there is a plan change request pending provider approval. If the provider approves the plan change, then the entitlement will transition either to EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVE or EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_PENDING_PLAN_CHANGE depending on whether current plan requires that the billing cycle completes.

If the provider rejects the plan change, then the pending plan change request is removed and the entitlement stays in EntitlementState.ENTITLEMENT_ACTIVE state with the old plan.

ENTITLEMENT_SUSPENDED

Indicates that the entitlement is suspended either by Google or provider request.

This can be triggered for various external reasons (e.g. expiration of credit card on the billing account, violation of terms-of-service of the provider etc.). As such, any remediating action needs to be taken externally, before the entitlement can be activated.

This is not yet supported.

Consumer

A resource using (consuming) this entitlement.
