In addition, discovery documents will no longer be retrieved dynamically when
you call `discovery.build()`. The discovery documents will instead be retrieved
from the client library directly. Existing code written for earlier versions of
this library will not require updating. We believe this new default behaviour
will provide a more predictable experience for users. If always using the latest
version of a service definition is more important than reliability, users should
set the `static_discovery` argument of `discovery.build()` to `False` to

For users of private APIs
-------------------------
If the discovery document requires an authentication key to access it, the
discovery document is private and it will not be shipped with the library.
Only discovery documents listed in [this public directory](https://www.googleapis.com/discovery/v1/apis/)
are included in the library. Users of private APIs should set the
`static_discovery` argument of `discovery.build()` to `False` to continue to
retrieve the service definition from the internet.
