Base Command#

gcp-logging-log-entries-list

Input#

Argument Name	Description	Required
project_name	A comma-separated list of projects names of parent resources from which to retrieve log entries. A maximum of 100 resources may be specified.	Optional
organization_name	A comma-separated list of organizations names of parent resources from which to retrieve log entries. A maximum of 100 resources may be specified.	Optional
billing_account_name	A comma-separated list of billing accounts names of parent resources from which to retrieve log entries. A maximum of 100 resources may be specified.	Optional
folder_name	A comma-separated list of folders names of parent resources from which to retrieve log entries. A maximum of 100 resources may be specified.	Optional
filter	When specified, the results returned are limited to log entries that match the filter. Referencing a parent resource that is not listed in resourceNames will cause the filter to return no results. The maximum length of a filter is 20,000 characters. E.g., "protoPayload.requestMetadata.callerIp:1.1.1.1 AND protoPayload.serviceName:name".	Optional
order_by	How the results should be sorted. Possible values are: timestamp asc, timestamp desc. Default is timestamp asc.	Optional
limit	The maximum number of objects to return.	Optional
page_size	The maximum number of results to return from this request. Default is 50. If the value is negative or exceeds 1000, the request is rejected.	Optional
next_token	If present, then retrieve the next batch of results from the preceding call to this method. pageToken must be the value of nextPageToken from the previous response.	Optional
