Fields
kind

string

[Output only] Type of the resource. Alwayscompute#sslPolicyfor SSL policies.

id

string (uint64 format)

[Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.

creationTimestamp

string

[Output Only] Creation timestamp inRFC3339 text format.

selfLink

string

[Output Only] Server-defined URL for the resource.

name

string

Name of the resource. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply withRFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])? which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.

description

string

An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.

profile

enum

Profile specifies the set of SSL features that can be used by the load balancer when negotiating SSL with clients. This can be one ofCOMPATIBLE,MODERN,RESTRICTED, orCUSTOM. If usingCUSTOM, the set of SSL features to enable must be specified in thecustomFeatures field.

minTlsVersion

enum

The minimum version of SSL protocol that can be used by the clients to establish a connection with the load balancer. This can be one ofTLS_1_0,TLS_1_1,TLS_1_2,TLS_1_3. When set toTLS_1_3, the profile field must be set toRESTRICTED.

enabledFeatures[]

string

[Output Only] The list of features enabled in the SSL policy.

customFeatures[]

string

A list of features enabled when the selected profile is CUSTOM. The method returns the set of features that can be specified in this list. This field must be empty if the profile is notCUSTOM.

fingerprint

string (bytes format)

Fingerprint of this resource. A hash of the contents stored in this object. This field is used in optimistic locking. This field will be ignored when inserting aSslPolicy. An up-to-date fingerprint must be provided in order to update theSslPolicy, otherwise the request will fail with error412 conditionNotMet.

To see the latest fingerprint, make aget() request to retrieve an SslPolicy.

A base64-encoded string.

warnings[]

object

[Output Only] If potential misconfigurations are detected for this SSL policy, this field will be populated with warning messages.

warnings[].code

enum

[Output Only] A warning code, if applicable. For example, Compute Engine returnsNO_RESULTS_ON_PAGE if there are no results in the response.

warnings[].message

string

[Output Only] A human-readable description of the warning code.

warnings[].data[]

object

[Output Only] Metadata about this warning inkey: value format. For example:

"data": [  {  "key": "scope",  "value": "zones/us-east1-d"  }

warnings[].data[].key

string

[Output Only] A key that provides more detail on the warning being returned. For example, for warnings where there are no results in a list request for a particular zone, this key might bescope and the key value might be the zone name. Other examples might be a key indicating a deprecated resource and a suggested replacement, or a warning about invalid network settings (for example, if an instance attempts to perform IP forwarding but is not enabled for IP forwarding).

warnings[].data[].value

string

[Output Only] A warning data value corresponding to the key.

region

string

[Output Only] URL of the region where the regional SSL policy resides. This field is not applicable to global SSL policies.
