Updates a taxonomy, including its display name, description, and activated policy types.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: datacatalog1 --scope <scope> projects locations-taxonomies-patch ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <name> (string)
    • Identifier. Resource name of this taxonomy in URL format. Note: Policy tag manager generates unique taxonomy IDs.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

GoogleCloudDatacatalogV1Taxonomy:
  activated-policy-types: [string]
  description: string
  display-name: string
  name: string
  policy-tag-count: integer
  service:
    identity: string
    name: string
  taxonomy-timestamps:
    create-time: string
    expire-time: string
    update-time: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r . activated-policy-types=sed
    • Optional. A list of policy types that are activated for this taxonomy. If not set, defaults to an empty list.
    • Each invocation of this argument appends the given value to the array.
  • description=invidunt
    • Optional. Description of this taxonomy. If not set, defaults to empty. The description must contain only Unicode characters, tabs, newlines, carriage returns, and page breaks, and be at most 2000 bytes long when encoded in UTF-8.
  • display-name=clita
    • Required. User-defined name of this taxonomy. The name can't start or end with spaces, must contain only Unicode letters, numbers, underscores, dashes, and spaces, and be at most 200 bytes long when encoded in UTF-8. The taxonomy display name must be unique within an organization.
  • name=dolor
    • Identifier. Resource name of this taxonomy in URL format. Note: Policy tag manager generates unique taxonomy IDs.
  • policy-tag-count=19
    • Output only. Number of policy tags in this taxonomy.
  • service identity=magna
    • The service agent for the service.

  • name=diam

    • The Google Cloud service name.

  • ..taxonomy-timestamps create-time=nonumy

    • Creation timestamp of the resource within the given system.
  • expire-time=et
    • Output only. Expiration timestamp of the resource within the given system. Currently only applicable to BigQuery resources.
  • update-time=sanctus
    • Timestamp of the last modification of the resource or its metadata within a given system. Note: Depending on the source system, not every modification updates this timestamp. For example, BigQuery timestamps every metadata modification but not data or permission changes.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

  • -p update-mask=string
    • Specifies fields to update. If not set, defaults to all fields you can update. For more information, see [FieldMask] (https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/google.protobuf#fieldmask).

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.

  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.

  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.

  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP

  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.

  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").

  • -p upload-protocol=string

    • Upload protocol for media (e.g. "raw", "multipart").
