I'm trying to get a response in a specific language. I found an example of how to do it in the documentation from Google (imageContext.languageHints) As a test, I made a request through Postman. The problem is that the response is returned in a completely different language than the one I specified. So in the request I specify the Ukrainian language "uk", and in the answer I receive Bulgarian "bg"

I tried specifying the language as well - "languageHints": ["uk-UA"] but the result is the same

This is not only useful for IP addresses, but also for many other resources. I understand that names are currently used as identifiers, so this request is probably not trivial to implement. Maybe distinguishing between a (numeric, automatically generated) identifier and a (textual) label is the way to go?

Is it any hope? We have migrated our IP address to the server with different role, and now the name of this IP address resource doesn't match its role at all. It seems to be trivial enough to momentary reserve static IP address of the old named resource, drop resource, and immediately recreate it with the new name and the old IP address.

This would also improve life when using the Google Deployment Manager (since it otherwise error's out if you've changed a name of an IP)

Over 3 years to get something as basic as renaming a static IP address. Any progress here?

Yes, I have a customer who has this exact issue too! Any updates or workarounds would be very appreciated!
