`create(parent, body=None, viewId=None, x__xgafv=None)`

    Creates a view over log entries in a log bucket. A bucket may contain a maximum of 30 views.

    Args:
      parent: string, Required. The bucket in which to create the view `"projects/[PROJECT_ID]/locations/[LOCATION_ID]/buckets/[BUCKET_ID]"` For example:"projects/my-project/locations/global/buckets/my-bucket" (required)
      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # Describes a view over log entries in a bucket.
      "createTime": "A String", # Output only. The creation timestamp of the view.
      "description": "A String", # Describes this view.
      "filter": "A String", # Filter that restricts which log entries in a bucket are visible in this view.Filters are restricted to be a logical AND of ==/!= of any of the following: originating project/folder/organization/billing account. resource type log idFor example:SOURCE("projects/myproject") AND resource.type = "gce_instance" AND LOG_ID("stdout")
      "name": "A String", # The resource name of the view.For example:projects/my-project/locations/global/buckets/my-bucket/views/my-view
      "updateTime": "A String", # Output only. The last update timestamp of the view.
    }

      viewId: string, Required. The id to use for this view.
      x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.

    }

`delete(name, x__xgafv=None)`

    Args:
      name: string, Required. The full resource name of the view to delete: "projects/[PROJECT_ID]/locations/[LOCATION_ID]/buckets/[BUCKET_ID]/views/[VIEW_ID]" For example:"projects/my-project/locations/global/buckets/my-bucket/views/my-view" (required)

      An object of the form:

        { # A generic empty message that you can re-use to avoid defining duplicated empty messages in your APIs. A typical example is to use it as the request or the response type of an API method. For instance: service Foo { rpc Bar(google.protobuf.Empty) returns (google.protobuf.Empty); } The JSON representation for Empty is empty JSON object {}.
    }

`list(parent, pageSize=None, pageToken=None, x__xgafv=None)`
