Required. Immutable. The location of the entity data within the partition,
for example, gs://bucket/path/to/entity/key1=value1/key2=value2. Or
projects/<project_id>/datasets/<dataset_id>/tables/<table_id>
Output only. Partition values used in the HTTP URL must be
double encoded. For example, url_encode(url_encode(value)) can be used
to encode "US:CA/CA#Sunnyvale so that the request URL ends
with "/partitions/US%253ACA/CA%2523Sunnyvale".
The name field in the response retains the encoded format.
