profiles.patch updates the profile bytes and labels on the profile resource created in the online mode. Updating the bytes for profiles created in the offline mode is currently not supported: the profile content must be provided at the time of the profile creation.
Direct use of this API is discouraged, please use asupported profiler agentinstead for profile collection.
Field mask used to specify the fields to be overwritten. Currently only profileBytes and labels fields are supported by profiles.patch, so only those fields can be specified in the mask. When no mask is provided, all fields are overwritten.
This is a comma-separated list of fully qualified names of fields. Example:"user.displayName,photo".
