Syntax
string GetName()

Return Value
StringName of the service.

Although an external service is uniquely identified by its Id, the Name can identify it to the end user in UI when UI is appropriate for the service.
Beside the requirement for the name to be a non-empty string, there are no other general restrictions imposed by the External Services Framework.
