Cloud TPU API - Create Node - Malformed Name

[paulo milheiro]

Hi! Im trying to create a Google Cloud TPU node using TPU client API and I cannot figure out the parent resource name of a TPU node in Google Cloud.I tried all the possible combinations, for example:

• projects/my-project-id/locations/europe-west4-a
• http://tpu.googleapis.com/v2alpha1/projects/my-project-id/locations/europe-west4-a
• //tpu.googleapis.com/v2alpha1/projects/my-project-id/locations/europe-west4-a
• etc...

And I always get the same error (google.api_core.exceptions.InvalidArgument: 400 Malformed name) :

grpc._channel._InactiveRpcError: <_InactiveRpcError of RPC that terminated with: status = StatusCode.INVALID_ARGUMENT details = "Malformed name: 'projects/my-project-id/locations/europe-west4-a/nodes/'"

 debug_error_string = "{"created":"@1645878700.379000000","description":"Error received from peer ipv4:142.250.179.170:443","file":"src/core/lib/surface/call.cc","file_line":1068,"grpc_message":"Malformed name: 'projects/my-project-id/locations/europe-west4-a/nodes/'","grpc_status":3}"

Im using Python 3.8, google-cloud-tpu v1.2.1, on a Conda virtualenv.

Any help would be much apprecciated!

Hello, 

The pattern for parent is "pattern": "^projects/[^/]+/locations/[^/]+$". More related detail can be found on the related GitHub page. Some of the values for parameters might not be right, for instance europe-west4-a might be europe-west4.
