View Integration Connectors logs
This page describes the logging data available for a connector and how you can access this
data using Cloud Logging.
Cloud Logging is a fully managed service that allows you to store, search, analyze, monitor,
and alert on logging data and events from Google Cloud. For more information about
Cloud Logging, see Cloud Logging documentation.
You can configure a connector to log at any of the following levels:
Error: Logs error messages that occur
during failures such as connection failures, and authentication failures.
Warning logs for non-critical messages also get logged. For example, if
you are accessing an unsupported entity, a warning message is logged.
Info: Logs information about operations and executions. Generally, this log
will have request, response, and headers for the requests which
the connector makes to your backend system.
Debug: Logs detailed tracing information which would be useful for debugging
any issues in connection or execution. This log
will have all the information that is logged at the Info and Error levels, and
additional details such as SSL information, network calls, and other tracing information.
View logs
If logging is enabled for a connector, you can view the logs in the Logs Explorer. To view
the logs in the Google Cloud console, do the following steps:
Go to the Logs Explorer in the Google Cloud console:
This sample query shows logs for all the connections across all the regions. You can further
filter the logs based on region and a connection name. For example, the following query
shows logs for the cloud-storage-con-1 connection, that is configured in the
us-central1 location.
