GKE Multi-Cloud audit logging
This document describes audit logging performed on GKE Multi-Cloud products, including GKE on Azure, GKE on AWS, and GKE attached clusters (EKS, AKS, and generic). It describes which methods generate audit logs and the content of each log. It also identifies methods that don't produce audit logs. Google Cloud generates audit logs that record administrative activities and access events within your Google Cloud resources. For more information, see Cloud Audit Logs overview.
Service name
GKE Multi-Cloud audit logs use the service name
gkemulticloud.googleapis.com.
Methods by permission type
Methods that check DATA_READ, DATA_WRITE, and
ADMIN_READ permissions generate logs categorized as
Data Access audit logs.
Methods that check ADMIN_WRITE permissions generate logs
categorized as
Admin Activity audit logs.

Methods that don't produce audit logs
A method might not produce audit logs for one or more of the following reasons:
- It is a high volume method involving signifcant log generation and storage costs.
- It has low auditing value.
- Another audit or platform log already provides method coverage.
The following methods don't produce audit logs:
