Cloud Logging can be turned on using a flag with the create command or the update command:

gcloud tasks queues create QUEUE_ID --log-sampling-ratio=LOG_SAMPLING_RATION

or

gcloud tasks queues update QUEUE_ID --log-sampling-ratio=LOG_SAMPLING_RATIO

Replace the following:

• QUEUE_ID: the ID of your queue
• LOG_SAMPLING_RATIO: the fraction of the operations logged. Any value between 1.0 and 0.0 logs that fraction of operations. To log all operations, set it to 1.0. To log no operations, set it to 0.0 (this is the default).
