Operations 2

Each operation below carries the questions people ask an LLM about it and the instructions they give an agent to run it. Generated by API Evangelist overlay

GET /v2/{parent}/sinks List log sinks in a project · List sinks #

Ask an LLM

“Which sinks are exporting logs out of my project?”

“Can I see all the log routing sinks set up on a folder or organization?”

Tell an agent

List every log sink under {parent}.

Show me where {parent} is routing its logs.

POST /v2/{parent}/sinks Create a sink that routes logs to a destination · Create sink #

Ask an LLM

“Can I export logs that match a filter to BigQuery, Cloud Storage or Pub/Sub?”

“Is it possible for an organization-level sink to include logs from child projects?”

Tell an agent

Create sink {name} under {parent} that sends logs to {destination}.

Route logs matching {filter} from {parent} to {destination} with a new sink.
