Description

Dataflow Jobs are uniquely identified by their job ID instead of their name. My request is to expose the job ID as a computed field, job_id.

It seems that the Terraform provider is already retrieving the job ID and setting it as the Terraform resource ID as seen here, so exposing it as a computed field should hopefully be reasonably doable.

Furthermore, there is precedence in using a computed identifier as the Terraform resource ID and exposed as a computed field, as seen with the name field of google_firestore_index here.

Can I try to work on this?

[danawillow]

Sure! Putting @jeet-parekh as the assignee. Since this is the same value that we already set in the id field, this should be pretty straightforward, but let me know if you have questions.

Thank you for taking the initiative @jeet-parekh!
