- In the management console, go to the folder with the log sink.
- Go to Cloud Logging.
- In the left-hand panel, select Sinks.
- Select the log sink.
- The Overview page will show the log sink details.
If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, install and initialize it.
The folder used by default is the one specified when creating the CLI 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 options.
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********

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