Property name	Value	Description
`kind`	`string`	[Output Only] Type of the resource. Always `compute#operation` for Operation resources.
`id`	`unsigned long`	[Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
`creationTimestamp`	`string`	[Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
`name`	`string`	[Output Only] Name of the resource.
`zone`	`string`	[Output Only] URL of the zone where the operation resides. Only available when performing per-zone operations.
`clientOperationId`	`string`	[Output Only] Reserved for future use.
`operationType`	`string`	[Output Only] The type of operation, such as `insert`, `update`, or `delete`, and so on.
`targetLink`	`string`	[Output Only] The URL of the resource that the operation is modifying.
`targetId`	`unsigned long`	[Output Only] The unique target ID, which identifies a specific incarnation of the target resource.
`status`	`string`	[Output Only] The status of the operation, which can be one of the following: `PENDING`, `RUNNING`, or `DONE`.
`statusMessage`	`string`	[Output Only] An optional textual description of the current status of the operation.
`user`	`string`	[Output Only] User who requested the operation, for example: `user@example.com`.
`progress`	`integer`	[Output Only] An optional progress indicator that ranges from 0 to 100. There is no requirement that this be linear or support any granularity of operations. This should not be used to guess when the operation will be complete. This number should monotonically increase as the operation progresses.
`insertTime`	`string`	[Output Only] The time that this operation was requested. This value is in RFC3339 text format.
`startTime`	`string`	[Output Only] The time that this operation was started by the server. This value is in RFC3339 text format.
`endTime`	`string`	[Output Only] The time that this operation was completed. This value is in RFC3339 text format.
`error`	`object`	[Output Only] If errors are generated during processing of the operation, this field will be populated.
`error.errors[]`	`list`	[Output Only] The array of errors encountered while processing this operation.
`error.errors[].code`	`string`	[Output Only] The error type identifier for this error.
`error.errors[].location`	`string`	[Output Only] Indicates the field in the request which caused the error. This property is optional.
`error.errors[].message`	`string`	[Output Only] An optional, human-readable error message.
`warnings[]`	`list`	[Output Only] If warning messages are generated during processing of the operation, this field will be populated.
`warnings[].code`	`string`	[Output Only] A warning code, if applicable. For example, Compute Engine returns `NO_RESULTS_ON_PAGE` if there are no results in the response.
`warnings[].message`	`string`	[Output Only] A human-readable description of the warning code.
`warnings[].data[]`	`list`	[Output Only] Metadata about this warning in `key: value` format. For example: "data": [ { "key": "scope", "value": "zones/us-east1-d" }
`warnings[].data[].key`	`string`	[Output Only] A key that provides more detail on the warning being returned. For example, for warnings where there are no results in a list request for a particular zone, this key might be `scope` and the key value might be the zone name. Other examples might be a key indicating a deprecated resource, and a suggested replacement, or a warning about invalid network settings (for example, if an instance attempts to perform IP forwarding but is not enabled for IP forwarding).
`warnings[].data[].value`	`string`	[Output Only] A warning data value corresponding to the key.
`httpErrorStatusCode`	`integer`	[Output Only] If the operation fails, this field contains the HTTP error status code that was returned. For example, a `404` means the resource was not found.
