source is an entity or a mechanism that can produce a finding. A source is
like a container of findings that come from the same scanner, logger,

}
```

## Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  and underscores, and can be no longer than 32 characters.

  The resource name of this source, in the format
  `organizations/{{organization}}/sources/{{source}}`.
