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.
.. attribute:: name
The Data Catalog resource name of the entry in URL format. Example: - projects/{project_id}/locations/{location}/entryG roups/{entry_group_id}/entries/{entry_id} Note that this Entry and its child resources may not actually be stored in the location in this name.
