Operation

This resource represents a long-running operation that is the result of a network API call.

Properties

Name Type Optional Description

name

string

 

The server-assigned name, which is only unique within the same service that originally returns it. If you use the default HTTP mapping, the name should have the format of operations/some/unique/name.

metadata

Object

 

Service-specific metadata associated with the operation. It typically contains progress information and common metadata such as create time. Some services might not provide such metadata. Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any.

This object should have the same structure as Any

done

boolean

 

If the value is false, it means the operation is still in progress. If true, the operation is completed, and either error or response is available.

error

Object

 

The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation.

This object should have the same structure as Status

response

Object

 

The normal response of the operation in case of success. If the original method returns no data on success, such as Delete, the response is google.protobuf.Empty. If the original method is standard Get/Create/Update, the response should be the resource. For other methods, the response should have the type XxxResponse, where Xxx is the original method name. For example, if the original method name is TakeSnapshot(), the inferred response type is TakeSnapshotResponse.

This object should have the same structure as Any
