Set up prebuilt reports in BigQuery

This page explains how to set up and view prebuilt reports in BigQuery. These reports are created using logs from Cloud Logging. To set up reports, you need to do a one-time activity of creating a log sink to stream logging data into BigQuery and then execute the prebuilt script.

Required IAM role

The following IAM permissions are required to view prebuilt reports in BigQuery. Learn how to grant an IAM role.

Role When to grant the role
Logs Configuration Writer (roles/logging.configWriter) or
Logging Admin (roles/logging.admin) and
BigQuery Data Editor (roles/bigquery.dataEditor)
To create a sink and BigQuery dataset from the Google Cloud console.
Owner (roles/owner) To create a sink and BigQuery dataset from the Google Cloud CLI.
BigQuery Admin (bigquery.admin) To write custom queries or download queries.

Create a sink and route logs to BigQuery

BigQuery stores only the logs that are generated after a log sink is created. The logs that are generated before creating a log sink are not visible in BigQuery. You can create the log sink from the Google Cloud console or Google Cloud CLI.

To create sink and route logs in BigQuery, do the following:

Console

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Log Router page:

    Go to Log Router page

  2. Select an existing Google Cloud project.
  3. Click Create sink.
  4. In the Sink details panel, enter the following fields:
    1. Sink name: enter the sink name as BackupandDR_reports_sink. You must use the sink name BackupandDR_reports_sink for the identification of Backup and DR reports from other sinks.
    2. Sink description: Describe the purpose or use case for the sink.
  5. In the Sink destination panel, do the following:

    1. In the Select sink service menu, select the BigQuery dataset sink service.
    2. In the Select BigQuery dataset, select Create new BigQuery dataset.
    3. On the Create dataset page, do the following:
      1. For Dataset ID, enter the dataset name as BackupandDR_reports to identify from other datasets. Don't change the dataset name from BackupandDR_reports.
      2. For Location type, choose a geographic location for the dataset. After a dataset is created, the location can't be changed.
      3. Optional: If you want tables in this dataset to expire, select Enable table expiration, then specify the Default maximum table age in days.
      4. Click Create dataset.
  6. In the Choose logs to include in sink panel, do the following:

    1. In the Build inclusion filter field, enter the following filter expression that matches the log entries you want to include.

       logName=~"projects/PROJECT_ID/logs/backupdr.googleapis.com%2Fgcb_*"
      
    2. To verify you entered the correct filter, select Preview logs. This opens the Logs Explorer in a new tab with the filter prepopulated.

  7. Optional: In the Choose logs to filter out of sink panel, do the following:

    1. In the Exclusion filter name field, enter a name.
    2. In the Build an exclusion filter field, enter a filter expression that matches the log entries you want to exclude. You can also use the sample function to select a portion of the log entries to exclude.

  8. Select Create sink.

    You can see the dataset in the BigQuery Studio.

gcloud

  1. Go to Activate cloud shell and click Open editor.
  2. Click the icon, select File, and then select New text file.
  3. Copy and paste the following script.

      #!/bin/bash

  4. Save the file with a name with a Bash (.sh) file extension, for example, script.sh.

  5. Run the command bash using the file you just created. For example, bash script.sh.

    You can see the created dataset in the BigQuery Studio.

Set up prebuilt reports

You can set up prebuilt reports by executing the following script within the dataset where the logs are being routed through the log sink.

The script adds the following prebuilt reports:

To set up prebuilt reports in BigQuery, do the following:

gcloud

  1. Go to Activate cloud shell and click Open editor.
  2. Create a new text file.
  3. Copy and paste the following prebuilt reports script into the Google Cloud CLI.

    Replace the following:

    • PROJECT_ID: the name of your project.
    • DATASET_NAME: the name of your BigQuery dataset. We recommend that you set the BigQuery dataset name for Backup and DR Service reports to the default dataset name, which is BackupandDR_reports. If you have set a different name than the default dataset name while creating the sink, change the dataset name to match your BigQuery dataset.
  4. Save the file with a name with a Bash (.sh) file extension, for example, backupdrreports.sh.

  5. Run the command bash using the file you just created. For example, bash backupdrreports.sh.

    You can see the prebuilt reports under the dataset in the BigQuery Studio.

After you set up prebuilt reports, if you have access to Google Workspace, you can view the results in Google connected sheets. If you don't have access to Google Workspace, you can view the reports in Looker Studio or download prebuilt reports in a CSV file.

Pricing

You may be charged for viewing prebuilt reports in BigQuery. These charges are based on the volume of reporting data, that is streamed, stored, and queried in BigQuery. For the details, see Pricing.
