  zone  = "us-central1-a"
}

• zone - (Required) The zone where the source disk is located.

• source_disk - (Required) The disk which will be used as the source of the snapshot.

• source_disk_encryption_key_raw - (Optional) A 256-bit [customer-supplied encryption key] (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-supplied-encryption), encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to decrypt the source disk.

• snapshot_encryption_key_raw - (Optional) A 256-bit [customer-supplied encryption key] (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-supplied-encryption), encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to encrypt this snapshot.

• project - (Optional) The project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.

• snapshot_encryption_key_sha256 - The [RFC 4648 base64] (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4) encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects this resource.

• source_disk_encryption_key_sha256 - The [RFC 4648 base64] (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4) encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects the source disk.
