Set up Cloud Logging

Enable Cloud Logging

Fleet Engine should automatically have logging enabled.

  1. Open the Logs Explorer.

  2. Enter the following query:

    resource.type:"fleetengine.googleapis.com"

If the results for the query list logs, then logging is enabled.

If you don't see any logs listed in the results for this query, Cloud Logging may not be enabled for your project. To enable Cloud Logging, contact Google Maps Platform Support.

Enable restricted use logs

In accordance with the Mobility Service Specific Terms, some of the log data that Fleet Engine generates may only be retained for 30 days. Fleet Engine labels those logs as TOS_RESTRICTED and sorts them into a restricted-retention log bucket, which you must create as shown below.

All other log data is assigned to the default bucket where it can be retained longer, as defined in the Mobility Service Specific Terms. See Logs Storage in the Google Cloud Console about customizing your log buckets and their retention periods.

For analysis, you can join the data from restricted and default logs for a complete set of log data.

Do the following to enable restricted use logs:

  1. Create a sink and bucket for restricted-use logs, and filter logs into their appropriate buckets.

  2. Contact support to enable restricted-use logs.

For details, see the following sections.

Create a sink and bucket for restricted logs in your project

  1. In the Logs Explorer, in the left-hand navigation, open the Log Router page.

  2. Modify the _Default logging bucket to exclude restricted-use logs.

    1. Under Log Router Sinks, select the _Default logging bucket.
    2. Choose Edit sink from the Actions menu.
    3. Go to the Choose logs to filter out of sink section and click the Add Exclusion button.
    4. Set the Exclusion filter name to ExcludeRestrictedLogs.
    5. In the Build and exclusion filter box, paste this filter: labels.restriction="TOS_RESTRICTED"
    6. Click Update sink.

  3. Create a restricted logging bucket to store the restricted-use logs. You do this by creating a sink and bucket for all logs, and then excluding the non-restricted logs.

    1. On the Log Router page, towards the top, select Create sink.
    2. Fill in the Sink details:
      1. Name: RestrictedLogs
      2. Description: Routes Fleet Engine restricted-use logs.
    3. Click Next.
    4. Fill in the Sink destination:
      1. Select Sink service: Logging bucket
      2. Select log bucket: Select Create new log bucket.
      3. In the Bucket details dialog, fill in:
        1. Name: Restricted
        2. Description: Contains Fleet Engine restricted-use logs.
      4. Leave the rest as is and click Next.
      5. Set the Retention period to 30 days. (The retention period must not exceed 30 days.)
      6. Click Create bucket.
    5. Back in the sink creation dialog, leave the Logs to include in sink section empty.
    6. In the Logs to filter out of sink section, click Add Exclusion and fill in:
      1. Exclusion filter name: ExcludeNonRestrictedLogs
      2. Exclusion filter: NOT (resource.type = "fleetengine.googleapis.com/Fleet" OR resource.type = "fleetengine.googleapis.com/DeliveryFleet") NOT (labels.restriction = "TOS_RESTRICTED")
    7. Click Create sink.

Contact support to enable restricted-use logs

  1. Go to Google Maps Platform Support
  2. Click Create Case to start a new support request.

  3. Provide the following information:

    • Project ID(s) to enable.
    • Email address of the person requesting the change. This person should have edit access to the Google Cloud Projects you are listing.

  4. Agree to the following by writing Yes: By enabling restricted-use Google Maps Content in Cloud Logging, you agree to adhere to the Google Maps Platform terms and Mobility service specific terms, including caching and permitted use requirements as they relate to Google Maps Content.

Once the support team handles your request, you will receive a confirmation that logging has been enabled for your project.
