    The region where the project data resides, to which this request is routed.

    This header is optional because the request is automatically routed to a target region based on the project ID or container ID. Using the header, though, can save lookup time on each API call.

    Possible values: EMEA, US. For the full list of supported regions, see the Regions page.
