Getting information about a log sink

Written by

Management console
CLI
API
  1. In the management console, go to the folder with the log sink.
  2. Go to Cloud Logging.
  3. In the left-hand panel, select Sinks.
  4. Select the log sink.
  5. The Overview page will show the log sink details.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI installed yet, install and initialize it.

By default, the CLI uses the folder specified when creating the profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also set a different folder for any specific command using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

To find out the ID or name of a log sink, get a list of sinks in the folder.

To get information about a log sink, run this command:

yc logging sink get <sink_name>

Result:

id: e23e73lehbfv********
folder_id: b1gmit33ngp3********
cloud_id: b1gia87mbaom********
created_at: "2023-11-07T09:22:28.946Z"
name: test-sink
service_account_id: ajejeis235ma********
s3:
  bucket: test-bucket

To get log sink details, use the get REST API method for the Sink resource or the SinkService/Get gRPC API call.
