observationSources.create creates a new ObservationSource but does not affect any deployed infrastructure. It is a configuration that can be used in an Observation Job to collect data about APIs running in user's dataplane.
HTTP request
POST https://apim.googleapis.com/v1alpha/{parent=projects/*/locations/*}/observationSources
The URL uses gRPC Transcoding syntax.
Path parameters
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
parent |
Required. Value for parent. |
Query parameters
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
observationSourceId |
Required. The ID to use for the Observation Source. This value should be 4-63 characters, and valid characters are /[a-z][0-9]-/. |
requestId |
Optional. An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed. The server will guarantee that for at least 60 minutes since the first request. For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments. The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000). |
