Name	Description	Type	Notes
_create_time	Timestamp of resource creation	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_create_user	ID of the user who created this resource	string	Readonly
_last_modified_time	Timestamp of last modification	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_last_modified_user	ID of the user who last modified this resource	string	Readonly
_links	References related to this resource The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.	array of ResourceLink	Readonly
_protection	Indicates protection status of this resource Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity.	string	Readonly
_revision	Generation of this resource config The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.	int
_schema	Schema for this resource	string	Readonly
_self	Link to this resource	SelfResourceLink	Readonly
_system_owned	Indicates system owned resource	boolean	Readonly
applied_to	Entities on which the input profile will be applied The list of entities that the configurations should be applied to. This can either be a NSGroup or any other entity like TransportNode, LogicalPorts etc.	array of ResourceReference
description	Description of this resource	string	Maximum length: 1024 Sortable
display_name	Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI Defaults to ID if not set	string	Maximum length: 255 Sortable
id	Unique identifier of this resource	string	Sortable
precedence	The priority of the service config Every ServiceConfig has a priority based upon its precedence value. Lower the value of precedence, higher will be its priority. If user doesnt specify the precedence, it is generated automatically by system. The precedence is generated based upon the type of profile used in ServiceConfig. Precedence are auto-generated in decreasing order with difference of 100. Automatically generated precedence value will be 100 less than the current minimum value of precedence of ServiceConfig of a given profile type in system.There cannot be duplicate precedence for ServiceConfig of same profile type.	integer	Minimum: 0 Maximum: 4294967295
profiles	Profiles to be added to service config These are the NSX Profiles which will be added to service config, which will be applied to entities/groups provided to applied_to field of service config.	array of NSXProfileReference	Required Minimum items: 1 Maximum items: 1
resource_type	Must be set to the value ServiceConfig	string
tags	Opaque identifiers meaningful to the API user	array of Tag	Maximum items: 30
