Entry(mapping=None, *, ignore_unknown_fields=False, **kwargs)
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.
Attributes
Name | Description |
name |
str
The Data Catalog resource name of the entry in URL format. Example: - projects/{project_id}/locations/{location}/entryGroups/{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. |
linked_resource |

`.datacatalog.EntryType`
The type of the entry. Only used for Entries with types in the EntryType enum. |
user_specified_type |
str
Entry type if it does not fit any of the input-allowed values listed in ``EntryType`` enum above. When creating an entry, users should check the enum values first, if nothing matches the entry to be created, then provide a custom value, for example "my_special_type". ``user_specified_type`` strings must begin with a letter or underscore and can only contain letters, numbers, and underscores; are case insensitive; must be at least 1 character and at most 64 characters long. Currently, only FILESET enum value is allowed. All other entries created through Data Catalog must use ``user_specified_type``. |
integrated_system |
`.common.IntegratedSystem`
Output only. This field indicates the entry's source system that Data Catalog integrates with, such as BigQuery or Pub/Sub. |
user_specified_system |
str
This field indicates the entry's source system that Data Catalog does not integrate with. ``user_specified_system`` strings must begin with a letter or underscore and can only contain letters, numbers, and underscores; are case insensitive; must be at least 1 character and at most 64 characters long. |
