adminInstalledboolean

Output only. For direct message (DM) spaces with a Chat app, whether the space was created by a Google Workspace administrator. Administrators can install and set up a direct message with a Chat app on behalf of users in their organization. To support admin install, your Chat app must feature direct messaging.

createTimestring google-datetime

displayNamestring

Optional. The space's display name. Required when creating a space with a spaceType of SPACE.
