    - `mode` 'ENABLED' | 'DISABLED'

      - `value_glob` string — Glob value of the label to match.
    - `conditional_rate_based_drop` DropRuleConditionalRateBasedDrop — No longer supported and cannot be used. Defines behavior for conditional drop policies.

      - `rate_limit_threshold` number, double — Percentage of the licensed limit reached in order to activate the drop rule, between 0 and 100.
      - `activated_drop_duration_secs` integer — Once activated, activated_drop_duration_secs defines how long the drop rule stays activated before rechecking against the rate_limit_threshold.

      - `enabled` boolean — Enables dropping metrics based on a set value.
      - `target_drop_value` number, double — The target data point value at which to drop metrics.
