object ( MonitoredResource )

Required. The monitored resource that produced this log entry.

Example: a log entry that reports a database error would be associated with the monitored resource designating the particular database that reported the error.

string ( Timestamp format)

Optional. The time the event described by the log entry occurred. This time is used to compute the log entry's age and to enforce the logs retention period. If this field is omitted in a new log entry, then Logging assigns it the current time. Timestamps have nanosecond accuracy, but trailing zeros in the fractional seconds might be omitted when the timestamp is displayed.

Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and use 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" , "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30" .

string ( Timestamp format)

Output only. The time the log entry was received by Logging.

Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and use 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" , "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30" .

enum ( LogSeverity )

Optional. The severity of the log entry. The default value is LogSeverity.DEFAULT .

string

Optional. A unique identifier for the log entry. If you provide a value, then Logging considers other log entries in the same project, with the same timestamp , and with the same insert_id to be duplicates which are removed in a single query result. However, there are no guarantees of de-duplication in the export of logs.

If the insert_id is omitted when writing a log entry, the Logging API assigns its own unique identifier in this field.

In queries, the insert_id is also used to order log entries that have the same log_name and timestamp values.

object ( HttpRequest )

Optional. Information about the HTTP request associated with this log entry, if applicable.

map (key: string, value: string)

Optional. A map of key, value pairs that provides additional information about the log entry. The labels can be user-defined or system-defined.

User-defined labels are arbitrary key, value pairs that you can use to classify logs.

System-defined labels are defined by cloud services for platform logs. They have two components - a service namespace component and the attribute name. For example: compute.googleapis.com/resource_name .

Cloud Logging truncates label keys that exceed 512 B and label values that exceed 64 KB upon their associated log entry being written. The truncation is indicated by an ellipsis at the end of the character string.

An object containing a list of "key": value pairs. Example: { "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" } .

object ( MonitoredResourceMetadata )

Output only. Deprecated. This field is not used by Logging. Any value written to it is cleared.

object ( LogEntryOperation )

Optional. Information about an operation associated with the log entry, if applicable.

string

Optional. The trace ID being written to Cloud Trace in association with this log entry. For example, if your trace data is stored in the Cloud project "my-trace-project" and if the service that is creating the log entry receives a trace header that includes the trace ID "12345", then the service should use "12345".

The REST resource name of the trace is also supported, but using this format is not recommended. An example trace REST resource name is similar to "projects/my-trace-project/traces/12345".

The trace field provides the link between logs and traces. By using this field, you can navigate from a log entry to a trace.

string

Optional. The ID of the Cloud Trace span associated with the current operation in which the log is being written.

A Span represents a single operation within a trace. Whereas a trace may involve multiple different microservices running on multiple different machines, a span generally corresponds to a single logical operation being performed in a single instance of a microservice on one specific machine. Spans are the nodes within the tree that is a trace.

Applications that are instrumented for tracing will generally assign a new, unique span ID on each incoming request. It is also common to create and record additional spans corresponding to internal processing elements as well as issuing requests to dependencies.

The span ID is expected to be a 16-character, hexadecimal encoding of an 8-byte array and should not be zero. It should be unique within the trace and should, ideally, be generated in a manner that is uniformly random.

Example values:

• 000000000000004a
• 7a2190356c3fc94b
• 0000f00300090021
• d39223e101960076

boolean

Optional. The sampling decision of the span associated with the log entry at the time the log entry was created. This field corresponds to the sampled flag in the W3C trace-context specification . A non-sampled trace value is still useful as a request correlation identifier. The default is False.

object ( LogEntrySourceLocation )

Optional. Source code location information associated with the log entry, if any.

object ( LogSplit )

Optional. Information indicating this LogEntry is part of a sequence of multiple log entries split from a single LogEntry.

object ( LogErrorGroup )

Output only. The Error Reporting error groups associated with this LogEntry. Error Reporting sets the values for this field during error group creation.

For more information, see [View error details]( https://cloud.google.com/error-reporting/docs/viewing-errors#view_error_details )

This field isn't available during log routing

object ( AppHub )

Output only. AppHub application metadata associated with this LogEntry. May be empty if there is no associated AppHub application or multiple associated applications (such as for VPC flow logs)

object ( AppHub )

Output only. AppHub application metadata associated with the destination application. This is only populated if the log represented "edge"-like data (such as for VPC flow logs) with a destination.

object ( AppHub )

Output only. AppHub application metadata associated with the source application. This is only populated if the log represented "edge"-like data (such as for VPC flow logs) with a source.

object

The log entry payload, represented as a protocol buffer. Some Google Cloud Platform services use this field for their log entry payloads.

The following protocol buffer types are supported; user-defined types are not supported:

"type.googleapis.com/google.cloud.audit.AuditLog" "type.googleapis.com/google.appengine.logging.v1.RequestLog"

An object containing fields of an arbitrary type. An additional field "@type" contains a URI identifying the type. Example: { "id": 1234, "@type": "types.example.com/standard/id" } .

string

The log entry payload, represented as a Unicode string (UTF-8).

object ( Struct format)

The log entry payload, represented as a structure that is expressed as a JSON object.

number

Represents a double value.

string

Represents a string value.

boolean

Represents a boolean value.

object ( Struct format)

Represents a structured value.

array ( ListValue format)

Represents a repeated Value .

object ( AppHubService )

Metadata associated with the service.

object ( AppHubWorkload )

Metadata associated with the workload.
