Output only. The resource name of the key. Thenamehas the form:projects/<PROJECT_NUMBER>/locations/global/keys/<KEY_ID>. For example:projects/123456867718/locations/global/keys/b7ff1f9f-8275-410a-94dd-3855ee9b5dd2
NOTE: Key is a global resource; hence the only supported value for location isglobal.
The field mask specifies which fields to be updated as part of this request. All other fields are ignored. Mutable fields are:displayName,restrictions, andannotations. If an update mask is not provided, the service treats it as an implied mask equivalent to all allowed fields that are set on the wire. If the field mask has a special value "*", the service treats it equivalent to replace all allowed mutable fields.
This is a comma-separated list of fully qualified names of fields. Example:"user.displayName,photo".
