### setAlertPolicy(AlertPolicy value)

    public CreateAlertPolicyRequest.Builder setAlertPolicy(AlertPolicy value)

Required. The requested alerting policy. You should omit the `name` field
in this policy. The name will be returned in the new policy, including a
new `[ALERT_POLICY_ID]` value.

`
.google.monitoring.v3.AlertPolicy alert_policy = 2 [(.google.api.field_behavior) = REQUIRED];
`

    public CreateAlertPolicyRequest.Builder setAlertPolicy(AlertPolicy.Builder builderForValue)

Required. The requested alerting policy. You should omit the `name` field
in this policy. The name will be returned in the new policy, including a
new `[ALERT_POLICY_ID]` value.

`
.google.monitoring.v3.AlertPolicy alert_policy = 2 [(.google.api.field_behavior) = REQUIRED];

### setName(String value)

    public CreateAlertPolicyRequest.Builder setName(String value)

Required. The
[project](https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/api/v3#project_name) in which
to create the alerting policy. The format is:

projects/\[PROJECT_ID_OR_NUMBER\]

Note that this field names the parent container in which the alerting
policy will be written, not the name of the created policy. \|name\| must be
a host project of a Metrics Scope, otherwise INVALID_ARGUMENT error will
return. The alerting policy that is returned will have a name that contains
a normalized representation of this name as a prefix but adds a suffix of
the form `/alertPolicies/[ALERT_POLICY_ID]`, identifying the policy in the
container.

`
string name = 3 [(.google.api.field_behavior) = REQUIRED, (.google.api.resource_reference) = { ... }
`

| **Parameter** ||
|---|---|
| **Name** | **Description** |
