### Method Details

`batchCreate(parent, body=None, x__xgafv=None)`

    Creates multiple new entities in the specified entity type. Operation

    Args:
      parent: string, Required. The name of the entity type to create entities in. Supported formats: - `projects//agent/entityTypes/` - `projects//locations//agent/entityTypes/` (required)
      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # The request message for EntityTypes.BatchCreateEntities.
        "entities": [ # Required. The entities to create.
          { # An **entity entry** for an associated entity type.
            "value": "A String", # Required. The primary value associated with this entity entry. For example, if the entity type is *vegetable*, the value could be *scallions*. For `KIND_MAP` entity types: * A reference value to be used in place of synonyms. For `KIND_LIST` entity types: * A string that can contain references to other entity types (with or without aliases).
            "synonyms": [ # Required. A collection of value synonyms. For example, if the entity type is *vegetable*, and `value` is *scallions*, a synonym could be *green onions*. For `KIND_LIST` entity types: * This collection must contain exactly one synonym equal to `value`.
              "A String",
            ],
          },
        ],
        "languageCode": "A String", # Optional. The language used to access language-specific data. If not specified, the agent's default language is used. For more information, see [Multilingual intent and entity data](https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/docs/agents-multilingual#intent-entity).
      }

      x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.
        Allowed values
          1 - v1 error format
          2 - v2 error format

    Returns:
      An object of the form:

        { # This resource represents a long-running operation that is the result of a network API call.
        "response": { # The normal response of the operation in case of success. If the original method returns no data on success, such as `Delete`, the response is `google.protobuf.Empty`. If the original method is standard `Get`/`Create`/`Update`, the response should be the resource. For other methods, the response should have the type `XxxResponse`, where `Xxx` is the original method name. For example, if the original method name is `TakeSnapshot()`, the inferred response type is `TakeSnapshotResponse`.
          "a_key": "", # Properties of the object. Contains field @type with type URL.
        },
        "error": { # The `Status` type defines a logical error model that is suitable for different programming environments, including REST APIs and RPC APIs. It is used by [gRPC](https://github.com/grpc). Each `Status` message contains three pieces of data: error code, error message, and error details. You can find out more about this error model and how to work with it in the [API Design Guide](https://cloud.google.com/apis/design/errors). # The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation.
          "message": "A String", # A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the google.rpc.Status.details field, or localized by the client.
          "details": [ # A list of messages that carry the error details. There is a common set of message types for APIs to use.
            {

            },
          ],
          "code": 42, # The status code, which should be an enum value of google.rpc.Code.
        },
        "done": True or False, # If the value is `false`, it means the operation is still in progress. If `true`, the operation is completed, and either `error` or `response` is available.
        "name": "A String", # The server-assigned name, which is only unique within the same service that originally returns it. If you use the default HTTP mapping, the `name` should be a resource name ending with `operations/{unique_id}`.
        "metadata": { # Service-specific metadata associated with the operation. It typically contains progress information and common metadata such as create time. Some services might not provide such metadata. Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any.
          "a_key": "", # Properties of the object. Contains field @type with type URL.
        },
      }

`batchDelete(parent, body=None, x__xgafv=None)`

    Deletes entities in the specified entity type. Operation

    Args:

      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # The request message for EntityTypes.BatchDeleteEntities.
        "languageCode": "A String", # Optional. The language used to access language-specific data. If not specified, the agent's default language is used. For more information, see [Multilingual intent and entity data](https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/docs/agents-multilingual#intent-entity).
        "entityValues": [ # Required. The reference `values` of the entities to delete. Note that these are not fully-qualified names, i.e. they don't start with `projects/`.
