Fields
name

string

Identifier. Unique name of the configuration using the form: projects/{projectId}/locations/global/vpcFlowLogsConfigs/{vpcFlowLogsConfigId}

metadataFields[]

string

Optional. Custom metadata fields to include in the reported VPC flow logs. Can only be specified if "metadata" was set to CUSTOM_METADATA.

labels

map (key: string, value: string)

Optional. Resource labels to represent user-provided metadata.

An object containing a list of "key": value pairs. Example: { "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }.

createTime

string (Timestamp format)

Output only. The time the config was created.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".

updateTime

string (Timestamp format)

Output only. The time the config was updated.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".

description

string

Optional. The user-supplied description of the VPC Flow Logs configuration. Maximum of 512 characters.

state

enum (State)

Optional. The state of the VPC Flow Log configuration. Default value is ENABLED. When creating a new configuration, it must be enabled.

aggregationInterval

enum (AggregationInterval)

Optional. The aggregation interval for the logs. Default value is INTERVAL_5_SEC.

flowSampling

number

Optional. The value of the field must be in (0, 1]. The sampling rate of VPC Flow Logs where 1.0 means all collected logs are reported. Setting the sampling rate to 0.0 is not allowed. If you want to disable VPC Flow Logs, use the state field instead. Default value is 1.0.

metadata

enum (Metadata)

Optional. Configures whether all, none or a subset of metadata fields should be added to the reported VPC flow logs. Default value is INCLUDE_ALL_METADATA.

filterExpr

string

Optional. Export filter used to define which VPC Flow Logs should be logged.

Union field target_resource. Reference to the resource of the config scope. That is, the scope from which traffic is logged. The target resource must belong to the same project as the configuration. target_resource can be only one of the following:
interconnectAttachment

string

Traffic will be logged from the Interconnect Attachment. Format: projects/{projectId}/regions/{region}/interconnectAttachments/{name}

vpnTunnel

string

Traffic will be logged from the VPN Tunnel. Format: projects/{projectId}/regions/{region}/vpnTunnels/{name}

State

Determines whether this configuration will be generating logs. Setting state=DISABLED will pause the log generation for this config.

Enums
STATE_UNSPECIFIED If not specified, will default to ENABLED.
ENABLED When ENABLED, this configuration will generate logs.
DISABLED When DISABLED, this configuration will not generate logs.

AggregationInterval

Toggles the aggregation interval for collecting flow logs by 5-tuple.

Enums
AGGREGATION_INTERVAL_UNSPECIFIED If not specified, will default to INTERVAL_5_SEC.
INTERVAL_5_SEC Aggregate logs in 5s intervals.
INTERVAL_30_SEC Aggregate logs in 30s intervals.
INTERVAL_1_MIN Aggregate logs in 1m intervals.
INTERVAL_5_MIN Aggregate logs in 5m intervals.
INTERVAL_10_MIN Aggregate logs in 10m intervals.
INTERVAL_15_MIN Aggregate logs in 15m intervals.

Metadata

Configures which log fields would be included.

Enums
METADATA_UNSPECIFIED If not specified, will default to INCLUDE_ALL_METADATA.
INCLUDE_ALL_METADATA Include all metadata fields.
EXCLUDE_ALL_METADATA Exclude all metadata fields.
CUSTOM_METADATA Include only custom fields (specified in metadataFields).
