## Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key | Returned | Description
--- | --- | ---
resources complex | always | List of resources
| appEngineHttpTarget complex | success | App Engine HTTP target. If the job providers a App Engine HTTP target the cron will send a request to the service instance .
|  | appEngineRouting complex | success | App Engine Routing setting for the job.
|  |  | instance string | success | App instance. By default, the job is sent to an instance which is available when the job is attempted.
|  |  | service string | success | App service. By default, the job is sent to the service which is the default service when the job is attempted.

|  | body string | success | HTTP request body. A request body is allowed only if the HTTP method is POST or PUT. It will result in invalid argument error to set a body on a job with an incompatible HttpMethod.
|  | headers dictionary | success | HTTP request headers. This map contains the header field names and values. Headers can be set when the job is created.
|  | httpMethod string | success | Which HTTP method to use for the request.
|  | relativeUri string | success | The relative URI.
| description string | success | A human-readable description for the job. This string must not contain more than 500 characters.
| httpTarget complex | success | HTTP target. If the job providers a http_target the cron will send a request to the targeted url .
|  | body string | success | HTTP request body. A request body is allowed only if the HTTP method is POST, PUT, or PATCH. It is an error to set body on a job with an incompatible HttpMethod.
|  | headers dictionary | success | This map contains the header field names and values. Repeated headers are not supported, but a header value can contain commas.
|  | httpMethod string | success | Which HTTP method to use for the request.
|  | oauthToken complex | success | Contains information needed for generating an OAuth token. This type of authorization should be used when sending requests to a GCP endpoint.
|  |  | scope string | success | OAuth scope to be used for generating OAuth access token. If not specified, "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform" will be used.
|  |  | serviceAccountEmail string | success | Service account email to be used for generating OAuth token. The service account must be within the same project as the job.
|  | oidcToken complex | success | Contains information needed for generating an OpenID Connect token. This type of authorization should be used when sending requests to third party endpoints or Cloud Run.
|  |  | audience string | success | Audience to be used when generating OIDC token. If not specified, the URI specified in target will be used.
|  |  | serviceAccountEmail string | success | Service account email to be used for generating OAuth token. The service account must be within the same project as the job.
|  | uri string | success | The full URI path that the request will be sent to.
| name string | success | The name of the job.
| pubsubTarget complex | success | Pub/Sub target If the job providers a Pub/Sub target the cron will publish a message to the provided topic .
|  | attributes dictionary | success | Attributes for PubsubMessage. Pubsub message must contain either non-empty data, or at least one attribute.

| region string | success | Region where the scheduler job resides .
| retryConfig complex | success | By default, if a job does not complete successfully, meaning that an acknowledgement is not received from the handler, then it will be retried with exponential backoff according to the settings .
|  | maxBackoffDuration string | success | The maximum amount of time to wait before retrying a job after it fails. A duration in seconds with up to nine fractional digits, terminated by 's'.
|  | maxDoublings integer | success | The time between retries will double maxDoublings times. A job's retry interval starts at minBackoffDuration, then doubles maxDoublings times, then increases linearly, and finally retries retries at intervals of maxBackoffDuration up to retryCount times.
|  | maxRetryDuration string | success | The time limit for retrying a failed job, measured from time when an execution was first attempted. If specified with retryCount, the job will be retried until both limits are reached. A duration in seconds with up to nine fractional digits, terminated by 's'.
|  | minBackoffDuration string | success | The minimum amount of time to wait before retrying a job after it fails. A duration in seconds with up to nine fractional digits, terminated by 's'.
|  | retryCount integer | success | The number of attempts that the system will make to run a job using the exponential backoff procedure described by maxDoublings. Values greater than 5 and negative values are not allowed.
| schedule string | success | Describes the schedule on which the job will be executed.
