         | 
      
        
        The Sensu resource's name. This name (in combination with the namespace where applicable) uniquely identifies the resource that Ansible operates on.
        
       
        If the resource with selected name already exists, Ansible module will update it to match the specification in the task.
        
       
        Consult the name metadata attribute specification in the upstream docs on https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/reference/ for more details about valid names and other restrictions.
