## Parameters

| Parameter | Description |
| - | - |
| Description | - |
| Description Operation | What operation to perform on the "description" parameter. When set to keep, will do nothing to the value and keep it as-is. If set to delete, will wipe the value. Otherwise, will replace the value if it is non-empty. |
| Display Name | - |
| Display Name Operation | What operation to perform on the "displayName" parameter. When set to keep, will do nothing to the value and keep it as-is. If set to delete, will wipe the value. Otherwise, will replace the value if it is non-empty. |
| Project ID | The name of the parent project to access. As an alternative, you can use the - wildcard character instead of the project ID. When possible, avoid using the - wildcard character because it can cause response messages to contain misleading error codes. For example, if you try to access the service account projects/-/serviceAccounts/fake\@example.com, which does not exist, the response contains an HTTP 403 Forbidden error instead of a 404 Not Found error. |
| Service Account ID | The resource name of the service account. Can either be an email address or its unique ID. This information can be retrieved using the "List Service Accounts" action. |

## Example Output

```json theme={"dark"}
{
	"name": "projects/test/serviceAccounts/test@blinkops.com",
	"description": "this is a description",
	"displayName": "Compute Engine default service account"
}
```
