--description=DESCRIPTION- User-defined description of an Service. Can have a maximum length of 2048 characters.
--display-name=DISPLAY_NAME- User-defined display name for the Service. Can have a maximum length of 63 characters.
--request-id=REQUEST_ID-
An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that
if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it
has already been completed. The server will guarantee that for at least 60
minutes since the first request.
For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments.
The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000).
