Class Entry (3.11.1)

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.

This message has oneof_ fields (mutually exclusive fields). For each oneof, at most one member field can be set at the same time. Setting any member of the oneof automatically clears all other members.
