public sealed class CustomAttribute : IMessage<CustomAttribute>, IEquatable<CustomAttribute>, IDeepCloneable<CustomAttribute>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Discovery Engine v1 API class CustomAttribute.
A custom attribute that is not explicitly modeled in a resource, e.g.
[UserEvent][google.cloud.discoveryengine.v1.UserEvent].
The numerical values of this custom attribute. For example, [2.3, 15.4]
when the key is "lengths_cm".
Exactly one of
[CustomAttribute.text][google.cloud.discoveryengine.v1.CustomAttribute.text]
or
[CustomAttribute.numbers][google.cloud.discoveryengine.v1.CustomAttribute.numbers]
should be set. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.
The textual values of this custom attribute. For example, ["yellow",
"green"] when the key is "color".
Empty string is not allowed. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is
returned.
Exactly one of
[CustomAttribute.text][google.cloud.discoveryengine.v1.CustomAttribute.text]
or
[CustomAttribute.numbers][google.cloud.discoveryengine.v1.CustomAttribute.numbers]
should be set. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.
