      parent: string, Required. The name of the consent store that this Attribute definition belongs to. (required)
      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # A client-defined consent attribute.
      "allowedValues": [ # Required. Possible values for the attribute. The number of allowed values must not exceed 500. An empty list is invalid. The list can only be expanded after creation.
        "A String",
      ],
      "category": "A String", # Required. The category of the attribute. The value of this field cannot be changed after creation.
      "consentDefaultValues": [ # Optional. Default values of the attribute in Consents. If no default values are specified, it defaults to an empty value.
        "A String",
      ],
      "dataMappingDefaultValue": "A String", # Optional. Default value of the attribute in User data mappings. If no default value is specified, it defaults to an empty value. This field is only applicable to attributes of the category `RESOURCE`.

    }

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

    Lists the Attribute definitions in the specified consent store.

    Args:
      parent: string, Required. Name of the consent store to retrieve Attribute definitions from. (required)
      filter: string, Optional. Restricts the attributes returned to those matching a filter. The following syntax is available: * A string field value can be written as text inside quotation marks, for example `"query text"`. The only valid relational operation for text fields is equality (`=`), where text is searched within the field, rather than having the field be equal to the text. For example, `"Comment = great"` returns messages with `great` in the comment field. * A number field value can be written as an integer, a decimal, or an exponential. The valid relational operators for number fields are the equality operator (`=`), along with the less than/greater than operators (`<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=`). Note that there is no inequality (`!=`) operator. You can prepend the `NOT` operator to an expression to negate it. * A date field value must be written in `yyyy-mm-dd` form. Fields with date and time use the RFC3339 time format. Leading zeros are required for one-digit months and days. The valid relational operators for date fields are the equality operator (`=`) , along with the less than/greater than operators (`<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=`). Note that there is no inequality (`!=`) operator. You can prepend the `NOT` operator to an expression to negate it. * Multiple field query expressions can be combined in one query by adding `AND` or `OR` operators between the expressions. If a boolean operator appears within a quoted string, it is not treated as special, it's just another part of the character string to be matched. You can prepend the `NOT` operator to an expression to negate it. The only field available for filtering is `category`. For example, `filter=category=\"REQUEST\"`.
      pageSize: integer, Optional. Limit on the number of Attribute definitions to return in a single response. If not specified, 100 is used. May not be larger than 1000.
      pageToken: string, Optional. Token to retrieve the next page of results or empty to get the first page.
      x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.
        Allowed values
          1 - v1 error format
          2 - v2 error format

    Returns:

        { # A client-defined consent attribute.

          "name": "A String", # Identifier. Resource name of the Attribute definition, of the form `projects/{project_id}/locations/{location_id}/datasets/{dataset_id}/consentStores/{consent_store_id}/attributeDefinitions/{attribute_definition_id}`. Cannot be changed after creation.
        },
      ],
      "nextPageToken": "A String", # Token to retrieve the next page of results, or empty if there are no more results in the list.
