Google API Tracing Token - Python

# A tracing token can be attached by utilizing the 'trace' kwarg on a method call.  
# Switching the request to utilize all 'kwargs' is recommended.
#
# Importantly, when a request (such as the one below) includes a body parameter, 
# the tracing token should NOT be included in the body.
#
# The tracing token parameter will need to be added to EACH AND EVERY call where a tracing token is required.
#
# Additionally, the Python library "execute" method allows for a "num_retries" param,
# which is a baked in exponential backoff mechanism.
