Class EntityTypesClient (1.4.0)

EntityTypesClient(*, credentials: Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials] = None, transport: Optional[Union[str, google.cloud.dialogflowcx_v3beta1.services.entity_types.transports.base.EntityTypesTransport]] = None, client_options: Optional[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] = None, client_info: google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo = <google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo object>)

Service for managing EntityTypes.

Properties

transport

Returns the transport used by the client instance.

Returns
Type	Description
`EntityTypesTransport`	The transport used by the client instance.

Methods

EntityTypesClient

EntityTypesClient(*, credentials: Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials] = None, transport: Optional[Union[str, google.cloud.dialogflowcx_v3beta1.services.entity_types.transports.base.EntityTypesTransport]] = None, client_options: Optional[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] = None, client_info: google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo = <google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo object>)

Instantiates the entity types client.

Parameters
Name	Description
`credentials`	`Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials]` The authorization credentials to attach to requests. These credentials identify the application to the service; if none are specified, the client will attempt to ascertain the credentials from the environment.
`transport`	`Union[str, EntityTypesTransport]` The transport to use. If set to None, a transport is chosen automatically.
`client_options`	`google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions` Custom options for the client. It won't take effect if a `transport` instance is provided. (1) The `api_endpoint` property can be used to override the default endpoint provided by the client. GOOGLE_API_USE_MTLS_ENDPOINT environment variable can also be used to override the endpoint: "always" (always use the default mTLS endpoint), "never" (always use the default regular endpoint) and "auto" (auto switch to the default mTLS endpoint if client certificate is present, this is the default value). However, the `api_endpoint` property takes precedence if provided. (2) If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE environment variable is "true", then the `client_cert_source` property can be used to provide client certificate for mutual TLS transport. If not provided, the default SSL client certificate will be used if present. If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE is "false" or not set, no client certificate will be used.
`client_info`	`google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo` The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If `None`, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you're developing your own client library.

Exceptions
Type	Description
`google.auth.exceptions.MutualTLSChannelError`	If mutual TLS transport creation failed for any reason.

Returns

Type Description

google.cloud.dialogflowcx_v3beta1.types.EntityType Entities are extracted from user input and represent parameters that are meaningful to your application. For example, a date range, a proper name such as a geographic location or landmark, and so on. Entities represent actionable data for your application. When you define an entity, you can also include synonyms that all map to that entity. For example, "soft drink", "soda", "pop", and so on. There are three types of entities: - **System** - entities that are defined by the Dialogflow API for common data types such as date, time, currency, and so on. A system entity is represented by the EntityType type. - **Custom** - entities that are defined by you that represent actionable data that is meaningful to your application. For example, you could define a pizza.sauce entity for red or white pizza sauce, a pizza.cheese entity for the different types of cheese on a pizza, a pizza.topping entity for different toppings, and so on. A custom entity is represented by the EntityType type. - **User** - entities that are built for an individual user such as favorites, preferences, playlists, and so on. A user entity is represented by the SessionEntityType type. For more information about entity types, see the [Dialogflow documentation](\ https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/docs/entities-overview).
