Google Cloud VMware Engine audit logging

This document describes audit logging for Google Cloud VMware Engine. Google Cloud services generate audit logs that record administrative and access activities within your Google Cloud resources. For more information about Cloud Audit Logs, see the following:

Service name

Google Cloud VMware Engine audit logs use the service name vmwareengine.googleapis.com. Filter for this service: 

    protoPayload.serviceName="vmwareengine.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, Google Cloud VMware Engine 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.

Methods that don't produce audit logs

A method might not produce audit logs for one or more of the following reasons:

  • It is a high volume method involving signifcant log generation and storage costs.
  • It has low auditing value.
  • Another audit or platform log already provides method coverage.

The following methods don't produce audit logs:

  • google.cloud.location.Locations.GetLocation
  • google.cloud.location.Locations.ListLocations
  • google.longrunning.Operations.WaitOperation
