Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) air-gapped provides audit logs to help you maintain security
and compliance. These logs track administrative activities and access to your
GDC resources. You can maintain a record of system
events using audit logs, answering to the question
"who did what, where, and when?" for your system.
This section helps to understand and query audit logs, including descriptions of
the audited operations in GDC and containing examples of
log file entries for components that generate audit logs.
Use this section for reference when constructing
LogQL (Log Query Language)
expressions to search for audit logs. For more information, see
Query and view logs.
The information about audit logs is organized in the following two sections:
Audited components:
Details the key fields in audit logs generated by various
GDC components, with examples for constructing
effective queries for audited operations.
Audit log sources:
Provides a comprehensive view of the JSON structure and field descriptions for
raw audit log entries. Use this information to effectively monitor,
troubleshoot, and audit your environment.
