Create a new client object for CloudChannelReportsService.
By default, this returns an instance ofGoogle::Cloud::Channel::V1::CloudChannelReportsService::Clientfor a gRPC client for version V1 of the API.
However, you can specify a different API version by passing it in theversionparameter. If the CloudChannelReportsService service is
supported by that API version, and the corresponding gem is available, the
appropriate versioned client will be returned.
You can also specify a different transport by passing:restor:grpcin
thetransportparameter.
Raises an exception if the currently installed versioned client gem for the
given API version does not support the given transport of the CloudChannelReportsService service.
You can determine whether the method will succeed by callingChannel.cloud_channel_reports_service_available?.
About CloudChannelReportsService
CloudChannelReportsService lets Google Cloud resellers and
distributors retrieve and combine a variety of data in Cloud Channel for
multiple products (Google Cloud, Google Voice, and Google Workspace.)
Determines whether the CloudChannelReportsService service is supported by the current client.
If true, you can retrieve a client object by callingChannel.cloud_channel_reports_service.
If false, that method will raise an exception. This could happen if the given
API version does not exist or does not support the CloudChannelReportsService service,
or if the versioned client gem needs an update to support the CloudChannelReportsService service.
Parameters
version(::String, ::Symbol)(defaults to: :v1)— The API version to connect to. Optional.
Defaults to:v1.
transport(:grpc, :rest)(defaults to: :grpc)— The transport to use. Defaults to:grpc.

About CloudChannelService
CloudChannelService lets Google cloud resellers and distributors manage
their customers, channel partners, entitlements, and reports.
Using this service:
Resellers and distributors can manage a customer entity.
Distributors can register an authorized reseller in their channel and
provide them with delegated admin access.
Resellers and distributors can manage customer entitlements.
CloudChannelService exposes the following resources:
Customers: An entity-usually an
enterprise-managed by a reseller or distributor.
Entitlements: An entity that
provides a customer with the means to use a service. Entitlements are created
or updated as a result of a successful fulfillment.
ChannelPartnerLinks: An
entity that identifies links between distributors and their indirect
resellers in a channel.
Parameters
version(::String, ::Symbol)(defaults to: :v1)— The API version to connect to. Optional.
Defaults to:v1.
transport(:grpc, :rest)(defaults to: :grpc)— The transport to use. Defaults to:grpc.
Returns
(::Object) — A client object for the specified version.
Determines whether the CloudChannelService service is supported by the current client.
If true, you can retrieve a client object by callingChannel.cloud_channel_service.
If false, that method will raise an exception. This could happen if the given
API version does not exist or does not support the CloudChannelService service,
or if the versioned client gem needs an update to support the CloudChannelService service.
Parameters
version(::String, ::Symbol)(defaults to: :v1)— The API version to connect to. Optional.
Defaults to:v1.
transport(:grpc, :rest)(defaults to: :grpc)— The transport to use. Defaults to:grpc.
Returns
(boolean) — Whether the service is available.
.configure
defself.configure()->::Google::Cloud::Config
Configure the google-cloud-channel library.
The following configuration parameters are supported:
credentials(type:String, Hash, Google::Auth::Credentials) -
The path to the keyfile as a String, the contents of the keyfile as a
Hash, or a Google::Auth::Credentials object.
lib_name(type:String) -
The library name as recorded in instrumentation and logging.
lib_version(type:String) -
The library version as recorded in instrumentation and logging.
interceptors(type:Array<GRPC::ClientInterceptor>) -
An array of interceptors that are run before calls are executed.
timeout(type:Numeric) -
Default timeout in seconds.
metadata(type:Hash{Symbol=>String}) -
Additional headers to be sent with the call.
retry_policy(type:Hash) -
The retry policy. The value is a hash with the following keys:
:initial_delay(type:Numeric) - The initial delay in seconds.
:max_delay(type:Numeric) - The max delay in seconds.
:multiplier(type:Numeric) - The incremental backoff multiplier.
:retry_codes(type:Array<String>) -
The error codes that should trigger a retry.
Yields
(::Google::Cloud.configure.channel)
Returns
(::Google::Cloud::Config) — The default configuration used by this library
