This document describes audit logging for App Engine Memcache. Google Cloud services generate audit logs that record administrative and access activities within your Google Cloud resources. To learn more about Cloud Audit Logs, refer to the following documentation pages:
- Types of audit logs
- Audit log entry structure
- Details on audit log storage and routing
- Cloud Logging pricing summary
- How to enable Data Access audit logs
Notes
Audit logs only apply to operations made through Cloud Console. Memcache operations initiated within your app will not be audit logged.
Service name
App Engine Memcache audit logs use the service name appenginememcacheconsole.googleapis.com
.
Filter for this service:
protoPayload.serviceName="appenginememcacheconsole.googleapis.com"
Methods by permission type
Each IAM permission has a type
property, whose value is an enum
that can be one of four values: ADMIN_READ
, ADMIN_WRITE
,
DATA_READ
, or DATA_WRITE
. When you call a method,
App Engine Memcache generates an audit log whose category is dependent on the
type
property of the permission required to perform the method.
Methods that require an IAM permission with the type
property value
of DATA_READ
, DATA_WRITE
, or ADMIN_READ
generate
Data Access audit logs.
Methods that require an IAM permission with the type
property value
of ADMIN_WRITE
generate
Admin Activity audit logs.
