Monitoring asset changes

This page explains how to create and manage feeds on a project.

Overview

To receive real-time notifications about resource and policy changes, you can create and subscribe to a feed. When you configure the feed, you can specify that you want to monitor changes of supported resource types, IAM policies, access policies, and organization policies in an organization, folder, project. Additionally, you can add conditions to your feed so that you only receive notifications for certain types of changes to an asset. After configuring your feed, you immediately receive notifications whenever the specified assets are changed, sent through Pub/Sub (formatted as a TemporalAsset). Real-time notifications connect to your existing workloads. With this functionality, you can merge actions like creating a Cloud Function to reverse a resource change after it has been detected.

Before you begin

Before you begin, complete the following steps.

Enable the Cloud Asset Inventory API on the project where you'll be running the API commands.

Enable the Cloud Asset Inventory API
Configure the permissions that are required to call the Cloud Asset Inventory API using either the gcloud CLI or the API.
Complete the following steps to set up your environment.
gcloud CLI
To set up your environment to use the gcloud CLI to call the Cloud Asset Inventory API, install the Google Cloud CLI on your local client.
REST
To set up your environment to call the Cloud Asset Inventory API with the curl command, complete the following steps.
1. Confirm that you have access to the curl command.
2. Ensure that you grant your account one of the following roles on your project, folder, or organization.
  - Cloud Asset Viewer role (roles/cloudasset.viewer)
  - Owner basic role (roles/owner)

Grant your user or service account permissions to call the API for real-time feeds. The following permissions are needed for each operation:

Permission	Description
`cloudasset.feeds.create` `cloudasset.assets.exportResource`	Create feeds
`cloudasset.feeds.update` `cloudasset.assets.exportResource`	Update feeds
`cloudasset.feeds.delete`	Delete feeds
`cloudasset.feeds.get`	Get feeds
`cloudasset.feeds.list`	List feeds

The Cloud Asset Owner (roles/cloudasset.owner) role grants all permissions related to the Cloud Asset API, including the permissions listed in the preceding table. For more information about roles and permissions, see Understanding roles and Configuring permissions.

If you are exporting metadata from one project to another, make sure the exporting project's default Cloud Asset Inventory service account exists and has the correct permissions.
Create a Pub/Sub topic if you don't have an existing Pub/Sub topic.

Limitations

It can take up to 10 minutes for any feed creation, update, or deletion to take effect.
The consumer project where the feed is created must outlive the feed because the service account used to publish to the destination Pub/Sub topic is located in the consumer project. If the consumer project is deleted, Cloud Asset Inventory cannot publish to the destination. The feed no longer functions and is deleted as soon as project deletion is permanent.

Creating feeds

You can create up to 200 feeds on a parent. This limit only applies to feeds directly following that parent and does not count the feeds of its children. For example, if you have 10 projects under an organization, each project can have up to 200 feeds and the organization can also have up to 200 feeds.

To create a feed for projects, folders, or organizations, make one of the following requests. Cloud Asset Inventory sets a notification on any asset that matches at least one of your feed's ASSET parameters AND also matches the condition expression, if specified.

gcloud

After creating a feed, subscribe to updates from the Pub/Sub topic you specified in the feed. A new feed can take up to 10 minutes to start sending notifications. A notification is sent for every change on an asset that matches either assetNames or assetTypes, and satisfies condition in the feed.

The first message published to the Pub/Sub topic is a welcome message in the format of string, and all the following messages are in the format of TemporalAsset. Here is a sample message for the RESOURCE content type.

{
  "asset": {
    "ancestors": [
      "projects/[PROJECT_ID]",
      "folders/[FOLDER_ID]",
      "organizations/[ORGANIZATION_ID]"
    ],

Troubleshooting

This section shows you how to troubleshoot common issues.

Failure to create or update feeds

If the creation or update of a feed fails, it might caused by an issue with permissions. Each feed creation or update request includes three parts: the consumer project used to call the API, the target parent to be monitored and destination Pub/Sub topic to receive the notification.

To create or update a feed, the following permissions are required:

The caller or the service account must have asset permissions in the target parent (that can be a project, folder or organization).
The asset service account (service-PROJECT_NUMBER@gcp-sa-cloudasset.iam.gserviceaccount.com) in the Cloud Asset API-enabled consumer project must have pubsub.topics.publish permission on the destination Pub/Sub topic.

An error message that contains does not have permission could indicate that the user or service account does not have the asset permissions. Learn more about the required permissions.

An error message that contains Fail to use TOPIC_ID as feed output destination could indicate that there is an issue publishing the message to the topic you specified in the feed output destination. To resolve the issue:

If you are using Google Cloud CLI, make sure you are using the correct project:
```
gcloud config list project
```
Ensure you've specified the correct topic name.
Ensure that the service account (service-PROJECT_NUMBER@gcp-sa-cloudasset.iam.gserviceaccount.com) has the pubsub.topics.publish permission on the topic, where PROJECT_NUMBER is the project number of the Cloud Asset Inventory-enabled project you plan to create the feed from.

gcloud CLI

You can retrieve a Google Cloud project number with the following command:

gcloud projects describe PROJECT_ID --format="value(projectNumber)"

Failure to receive resource updates or IAM policy updates

If you are not receiving notifications for resource or IAM policy updates, verifying the following configuration details can help resolve the issue:

Make sure that the metadata has changed on your assets. The real-time feed only sends updates when the metadata of the supported resource types has changed; operations such as uploading a new file to your Cloud Storage bucket does not trigger a metadata change.
Make sure your assets meet one of the criteria you specified in the feed, which are asset names and asset types.
Check the logs to see if there are errors when publishing updates to your topic.

Using Cloud Logging

This section describes how to set up and view Logging for Cloud Asset Inventory real-time feeds.

When real-time feeds fail to send resources or IAM policy updates through Pub/Sub, Cloud Asset Inventory logs the error status and message via Logging. Logging is enabled by default, and belongs to Google Cloud's operations suite. Learn about Google Cloud's operations suite pricing.

Viewing real-time feed logs

To view logs, go to Logs Explorer.

The real-time feed log is indexed by a Pub/Sub topic. To see all logs:

Click the Resource combo box, which is next to the Search all fields box.
Search for Cloud Pub/Sub Topic, and then click the Cloud Pub/Sub Topic resource type.
Click the topic ID you want to view.
Click Apply.

UTF-8 encoding is enforced for log fields. Characters that are not UTF-8 characters are replaced with question marks.

Logged information

Real-time feed log entries contain following types of information:

General information shown in most Google Cloud logs, such as severity, project ID, project number, or timestamp.
Real-time feed log fields in jsonPayload, which contains asset name, feed output config, error status when publishing resource or IAM policy updates.

The following table shows what kinds of information each field contains.

Field	Type and description
`name`	`string` Full Name of the feed. The format is one of the following: `projects/PROJECT_ID/feeds/FEED_ID` `folders/FOLDER_ID/feeds/FEED_ID` `organizations/ORGANIZATION_ID/feeds/FEED_ID`
`asset_name`	`string` Full name of the asset to receive updates. For example: `//compute.googleapis.com/projects/my_project_123/zones/zone1/instances/instance1` See Resource names for more info.
`feed_output_config`	`FeedOutputConfig` Feed output configuration defining where the asset updates are published to.
`condition`	`Expr` Feed condition which determines whether an asset update should be published.
`error_status`	`Status` Status when there's a failure to publish asset updates to a feed.
