### Method Details

`get(name, x__xgafv=None)`

    Gets a single monitored resource descriptor. This method does not require a Stackdriver account.

    Args:
      name: string, The monitored resource descriptor to get. The format is "projects/{project_id_or_number}/monitoredResourceDescriptors/{resource_type}". The {resource_type} is a predefined type, such as cloudsql_database. (required)
      x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.
        Allowed values
          1 - v1 error format
          2 - v2 error format

    Returns:
      An object of the form:

        { # An object that describes the schema of a MonitoredResource object using a type name and a set of labels. For example, the monitored resource descriptor for Google Compute Engine VM instances has a type of "gce_instance" and specifies the use of the labels "instance_id" and "zone" to identify particular VM instances.Different APIs can support different monitored resource types. APIs generally provide a list method that returns the monitored resource descriptors used by the API.
        "type": "A String", # Required. The monitored resource type. For example, the type "cloudsql_database" represents databases in Google Cloud SQL. The maximum length of this value is 256 characters.
        "labels": [ # Required. A set of labels used to describe instances of this monitored resource type. For example, an individual Google Cloud SQL database is identified by values for the labels "database_id" and "zone".
          { # A description of a label.
            "valueType": "A String", # The type of data that can be assigned to the label.
            "description": "A String", # A human-readable description for the label.
            "key": "A String", # The label key.
          },
        ],
        "displayName": "A String", # Optional. A concise name for the monitored resource type that might be displayed in user interfaces. It should be a Title Cased Noun Phrase, without any article or other determiners. For example, "Google Cloud SQL Database".
        "name": "A String", # Optional. The resource name of the monitored resource descriptor: "projects/{project_id}/monitoredResourceDescriptors/{type}" where {type} is the value of the type field in this object and {project_id} is a project ID that provides API-specific context for accessing the type. APIs that do not use project information can use the resource name format "monitoredResourceDescriptors/{type}".
        "description": "A String", # Optional. A detailed description of the monitored resource type that might be used in documentation.
      }

`list(name, pageSize=None, filter=None, pageToken=None, x__xgafv=None)`

    Lists monitored resource descriptors that match a filter. This method does not require a Stackdriver account.

    Args:
      name: string, The project on which to execute the request. The format is "projects/{project_id_or_number}". (required)
      pageSize: integer, A positive number that is the maximum number of results to return.
      filter: string, An optional filter describing the descriptors to be returned. The filter can reference the descriptor's type and labels. For example, the following filter returns only Google Compute Engine descriptors that have an id label:
    resource.type = starts_with("gce_") AND resource.label:id

      pageToken: string, If this field is not empty then it must contain the nextPageToken value returned by a previous call to this method. Using this field causes the method to return additional results from the previous method call.
      x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.
        Allowed values
          1 - v1 error format
          2 - v2 error format

    Returns:
      An object of the form:

        { # The ListMonitoredResourceDescriptors response.
        "nextPageToken": "A String", # If there are more results than have been returned, then this field is set to a non-empty value. To see the additional results, use that value as pageToken in the next call to this method.
        "resourceDescriptors": [ # The monitored resource descriptors that are available to this project and that match filter, if present.
          { # An object that describes the schema of a MonitoredResource object using a type name and a set of labels.

                "key": "A String", # The label key.
              },
            ],
            "displayName": "A String", # Optional. A concise name for the monitored resource type that might be displayed in user interfaces. It should be a Title Cased Noun Phrase, without any article or other determiners. For example, "Google Cloud SQL Database".
            "name": "A String", # Optional.

          },
        ],
      }

`list_next(previous_request, previous_response)`

    Retrieves the next page of results.

    Args:
      previous_request: The request for the previous page. (required)
      previous_response: The response from the request for the previous page. (required)

    Returns:
      A request object that you can call 'execute()' on to request the next
      page. Returns None if there are no more items in the collection.
