resource.type="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance"
resource.labels.cluster_id="clust1"
resource.labels.instance_id="inst1"
logName="projects/user1-prod3/logs/alloydb.googleapis.com%2Fpostgres.log"

Console

Go to the Logs Explorer
Select an existing AlloyDB project at the top of the page.
In the Query builder, add the following:

Resource: select AlloyDB Instance. In the dialog, select a location followed by selection of a cluster ID.
Log names: scroll to the AlloyDB section and select appropriate log files for your instance. For example:
- alloydb.googleapis.com/postgres.log
Severity: select a log level.
Time range: select a preset or create a custom range.

gcloud

Use the gcloud logging command to view log entries. In the example below, replace PROJECT_ID. The limit flag is an optional parameter that indicates the maximum number of entries to return.

gcloud logging read "projects/[PROJECT_ID]/logs/alloydb.googleapis.com/postgres.log" --limit=10
