Class Section

Represents a section in Google Chat. Sections help users organize their spaces. There are two types of sections:

1. System Sections: These are predefined sections managed by Google Chat. Their resource names are fixed, and they cannot be created, deleted, or have their display_name modified. Examples include:

   • users/{user}/sections/default-direct-messages
   • users/{user}/sections/default-spaces
   • users/{user}/sections/default-apps

2. Custom Sections: These are sections created and managed by the user. Creating a custom section using CreateSection requires a display_name. Custom sections can be updated using UpdateSection and deleted using DeleteSection.
