  | Display Name Operation | What operation to perform on the "displayName" parameter.<br /><br />When set to keep, will do nothing to the value and keep it as-is.<br />If set to delete, will wipe the value.<br />Otherwise, will replace the value if it is non-empty.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
  | Project ID             | The name of the parent project to access.<br /><br />As an alternative, you can use the - wildcard character instead of the project ID.<br /><br />When possible, avoid using the - wildcard character because it can cause response messages to contain<br />misleading error codes. For example, if you try to access the service account projects/-/serviceAccounts/fake\@example.com,<br />which does not exist, the response contains an HTTP 403 Forbidden error instead of a 404 Not Found error. |
  | Service Account ID     | The resource name of the service account.<br /><br />Can either be an email address or its unique ID.<br /><br />This information can be retrieved using the "List Service Accounts" action.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
