An API raises this this error to avoid overwriting an existing resource,
value, etc. Calling a creation API multiple times with the same arguments
could raise this error if the creation API is not idempotent.
For example, running an operation that saves a file
(e.g. tf.saved_model.save)
could potentially raise this exception if an explicit filename for an
existing file was passed.
Attributes
error_code
The integer error code that describes the error.
experimental_payloads
A dictionary describing the details of the error.
message
The error message that describes the error.
node_def
The NodeDef proto representing the op that failed.
