🔶 High Risk Operations — Some operations on this resource have high danger level. Destructive operations may require confirmation.

name - Required String
Name of the Endpoint. Must be unique within the namespace

namespace - Required String
Namespace where the Endpoint will be created

annotations - Optional Map
Annotations is an unstructured key value map stored with a resource that may be set by external tools to store and retrieve arbitrary metadata

description - Optional String
Human readable description for the object

-> One of the following:dns_name - Optional String
Endpoint’s IP address is discovered using DNS name resolution. The name given here is fully qualified domain name
