Snapshot

JSON representation

JSON representation
{ "name" : string , "description" : string , "state" : enum ( `State` ) , "createTime" : string , "labels" : { string : string , ... } , "filesystemUsedBytes" : string , "tags" : { string : string , ... } }

 { 
 "name" 
 : 
 string 
 , 
 "description" 
 : 
 string 
 , 
 "state" 
 : 
 enum (  State 
 
) 
 , 
 "createTime" 
 : 
 string 
 , 
 "labels" 
 :

 , 
 "filesystemUsedBytes" 
 : 
 string 
 , 
 "tags" 
 : 
 { 
 string 
 : 
 string 
 , 
 ... 
 } 
 }

Fields
`name`	`string` Output only. The resource name of the snapshot, in the format `projects/{project_id}/locations/{location_id}/instances/{instance_id}/snapshots/{snapshot_id}` .
`description`	`string` A description of the snapshot with 2048 characters or less. Requests with longer descriptions will be rejected.
`state`	`enum ( State )` Output only. The snapshot state.
`createTime`	`string ( Timestamp format)` Output only. The time when the snapshot 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"` .
`labels`	`map (key: string, value: string)` Resource labels to represent user provided metadata. An object containing a list of `"key": value` pairs. Example: `{ "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }` .
`filesystemUsedBytes`	`string ( int64 format)` Output only. The amount of bytes needed to allocate a full copy of the snapshot content
`tags`	`map (key: string, value: string)` Optional. Input only. Immutable. Tag key-value pairs bound to this resource. Each key must be a namespaced name and each value a short name. Example: "123456789012/environment" : "production", "123456789013/costCenter" : "marketing" See the documentation for more information: - Namespaced name: https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/tags/tags-creating-and-managing#retrieving_tag_key - Short name: https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/tags/tags-creating-and-managing#retrieving_tag_value An object containing a list of `"key": value` pairs. Example: `{ "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }` .

Timestamp

JSON representation
{ "seconds" : string , "nanos" : integer }

Fields

Fields
`seconds`	`string ( int64 format)` Represents seconds of UTC time since Unix epoch 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. Must be between -62135596800 and 253402300799 inclusive (which corresponds to 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z to 9999-12-31T23:59:59Z).
`nanos`	`integer` Non-negative fractions of a second at nanosecond resolution. This field is the nanosecond portion of the duration, not an alternative to seconds. Negative second values with fractions must still have non-negative nanos values that count forward in time. Must be between 0 and 999,999,999 inclusive.

seconds
