Identity Platform API is inconsistent in version and features with Google Cloud documentation

1. Is this a client library issue or a product issue?

Yes?

1. Did someone already solve this?

No.

1. Do you have a support contract?

Yes, but this doesn’t seem like a support issue.

If the support paths suggested above still do not result in a resolution, please provide the following details.

Environment details

• OS: all
• Node.js version: all
• npm version: all
• googleapis version: all

Steps to reproduce

1. Look at Identity Platform documentation online and find that Google Cloud Platform only documents v1, v2: https://cloud.google.com/identity-platform/docs/reference/rest
2. Load up this library, find that you can only access v3, which has a smaller API surface than v1 or v2 and doesn’t support APIs like projects.updateConfig
3. Be very confused, why are the API versions different, why doesn’t projects.updateConfig have a v3 equivalent, et cetera, et cetera.

Confusingly, the “v3” schema is actually a legacy API surface. “v1” and “v2” are newer which is why they are documented on GCP docs. Their discovery docs are also published now.
