An Operation resource. For more information, see Operation.

Field	Description
id	string ID of the operation.
description	string Description of the operation. 0-256 characters long.
createdAt	string (date-time) Creation timestamp. String in RFC3339 text format. The range of possible values is from `0001-01-01T00:00:00Z` to `9999-12-31T23:59:59.999999999Z`, i.e. from 0 to 9 digits for fractions of a second. To work with values in this field, use the APIs described in the Protocol Buffers reference. In some languages, built-in datetime utilities do not support nanosecond precision (9 digits).
createdBy	string ID of the user or service account who initiated the operation.
modifiedAt	string (date-time) The time when the Operation resource was last modified. String in RFC3339 text format. The range of possible values is from `0001-01-01T00:00:00Z` to `9999-12-31T23:59:59.999999999Z`, i.e. from 0 to 9 digits for fractions of a second. To work with values in this field, use the APIs described in the Protocol Buffers reference. In some languages, built-in datetime utilities do not support nanosecond precision (9 digits).
done	boolean If the value is `false`, it means the operation is still in progress. If `true`, the operation is completed, and either `error` or `response` is available.
metadata	UpdateCaptchaMetadata Service-specific metadata associated with the operation. It typically contains the ID of the target resource that the operation is performed on. Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any.
error	Status The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation. Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`. The operation result. If `done == false` and there was no failure detected, neither `error` nor `response` is set. If `done == false` and there was a failure detected, `error` is set. If `done == true`, exactly one of `error` or `response` is set.
response	Captcha The normal response of the operation in case of success. If the original method returns no data on success, such as Delete, the response is google.protobuf.Empty. If the original method is the standard Create/Update, the response should be the target resource of the operation. Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the response type, if any. Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`. The operation result. If `done == false` and there was no failure detected, neither `error` nor `response` is set. If `done == false` and there was a failure detected, `error` is set. If `done == true`, exactly one of `error` or `response` is set.
