createTime string (Timestamp format)

Output only. timestamp when this ReasoningEngine was created.

Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and use 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".

updateTime string (Timestamp format)

Output only. timestamp when this ReasoningEngine was most recently updated.

Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and use 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".

etag string

Optional. Used to perform consistent read-modify-write updates. If not set, a blind "overwrite" update happens.

encryptionSpec object (EncryptionSpec)
