| body.Residency              | `*pgbeam.DataResidency`       | No       | Data-residency requirement for the project. "any" (default) lets queries be served from the nearest data-plane metro. "us" or "eu" require the serving metro to be in that jurisdiction; the proxy fails a connection closed when it is served from a metro outside the required jurisdiction, so regulated workloads never process outside their permitted region. |
| body.AgentsDisabled         | `*bool`                       | No       | Project-level kill-switch. Set true to block ALL agent-credential connections to this project (live agent sessions are dropped within seconds); set false to re-enable them. Passthrough/human connections are unaffected. Engaging the kill-switch emits a kill_switch webhook event.                                                                              |

    Description: &description,
    Tags: &tags,
    DefaultPolicyProfileId: &defaultPolicyProfileId,

| 400    | The request was rejected. `code` is `INVALID_INPUT`, and `errors` names the offending fields when the failure was a validation one.                                                                                                                                                                                                   |

| 403    | The caller is authenticated but not allowed to perform this operation. `code` is `FORBIDDEN` when the caller's role is insufficient, and `PLAN_LIMIT_REACHED` when the organization's plan is what stands in the way. The two are answered differently, so branch on the code rather than the status.                                 |
| 404    | The resource does not exist, or the caller is not entitled to know that it does. `code` is `NOT_FOUND`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| 409    | The request conflicts with the current state. `code` distinguishes the cases: `RESOURCE_EXISTS` for a name or value already in use, `INVALID_STATE` for a resource that is no longer in a state that allows the operation, and `IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED` for a retry whose body does not match the request the key was first used for. |
| 412    | The `If-Match` entity tag does not match the current representation, so the resource changed after the read this write was based on. Nothing was modified. `code` is `PRECONDITION_FAILED`. Re-read the resource, re-apply the change, and retry with the new tag.                                                                    |
| 413    | The request body exceeds the 2 MB limit. `code` is `PAYLOAD_TOO_LARGE`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
