Name of the information type. Either a name of your choosing when
creating a CustomInfoType, or one of the names listed
at
https://cloud.google.com/sensitive-data-protection/docs/infotypes-reference
when specifying a built-in type. When sending Cloud DLP results to Data
Catalog, infoType names should conform to the pattern
[A-Za-z0-9$_-]{1,64}.
