Tenant admin, or a role on a project (replacing the account’s role there). Written before the call answers. Tenant admins only.

serviceAccountId
required
string

The service account id.

Idempotency-Key
string
>= 1 characters

Caller-supplied idempotency key, scoped to the caller: the same key from someone else in the tenant is their own request (from 0.1.5). Retries with the same key return the original response byte-identical (per docs/API-ROUTE-CONVENTIONS.md §3.1). A retry sent while the first request still runs is answered 409 idempotency-key-in-flight with Retry-After, on a runtime whose store holds keys (from 0.1.5); retry after it, and you get the first request’s answer. An answer that carries a secret (a new API key or public run token, a session token, a generated signing secret) isn’t kept: a retry gets 409 idempotency-key-replay-withheld, with the first request’s status and when it succeeded (from 0.1.5).

required
string format: date-time

Set once unregistered: it has no grants, and its keys no longer work.

string format: date-time
projectId

Set on a project’s own account: made by the first trigger that runs as the project (runAsProject), with the editor role on it. It runs only the triggers with runAsProject, not the project’s other shared triggers. It has no keys, and its grant is fixed. Unregistering it stops those triggers until an admin takes each over; deleting the project unregisters it.
