Change To support correlation between log and trace data, the following changes have
been made:

- The required format for the `LogEntry.trace` field has been relaxed. The
  preferred format for this field is the trace ID. However, you can continue
  to provide the full resource name. For more information, see
  [`LogEntry`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/reference/v2/rest/v2/LogEntry.md.txt).

- If you open the **Trace Details flyout** page by using options provided in a
  log entry, then the resources listed in the default trace scope are searched
  for the trace data.

- If you open the **Logs Explorer** page by using options on span data, then
  the resources listed in the default log scope are searched for log data.

To learn more about default scopes, see
[Configure observability scopes for multi-project queries](https://docs.cloud.google.com/stackdriver/docs/observability/scopes.md.txt).
Feature You can now install and manage the Ops Agent on virtual machines across zones in

memory to run the Logging agent.
Feature **Google Cloud Platform HTTP(S) load balancing logging** now includes logs for
**rejected requests** , such as those due to invalid or expired URL
signatures, and aligns **httpRequest.requestSize** with metrics from the
[Stackdriver Monitoring API](https://docs.cloud.google.com/monitoring/api/metrics_gcp.md.txt#gcp-loadbalancing). For
more information, see [HTTP(S) Load Balancing Logging](https://docs.cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/http#logging).

## November 29, 2017

Feature **Logs-based metrics** are now Generally Available. For more information, see
[Overview of Logs-based Metrics](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/logs-based-metrics.md.txt).
Change **Logging agent installation instructions** : The checksum validation step for
the installation script has been removed. You can see the new instructions on
the [logging agent installation](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/agent/installation) page.
Fixed **Logs Viewer** update: Fixes a problem related to the daylight saving time
transition in the U.K. If you see your logs displaying in the wrong time zone,
you can set your default time zone by using the **Jump to date** drop-down menu
to select a different time zone. For more information, see
[Logs Viewer user interfaces](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/overview#the_user_interfaces).

## November 01, 2017

Change **Pricing changes** : Billing for logs overages will begin **March 31, 2018** .
This date extends the one that was previously communicated to give Stackdriver
customers more time to apply the [exclusion filters](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/exclusions)
feature to control which logs are stored in Logging. Billing
for custom and user-defined logs-based metrics is still postponed. For more
information, see [Stackdriver Pricing](https://cloud.google.com/stackdriver/pricing).

## October 30, 2017

Feature **Exclusion filters** are now Generally Available. For more information, see
[Excluding Logs](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/exclusions), and the **Resource Usage** page in

the Stackdriver Basic and Premium service tiers. For more information, see
[Audit log retention](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/audit.md.txt#audit_log_retention).
Feature **Logging agent update** to 1.5.18-1. Allows enabling JSON detection via
configuration, fixes a problem with string-valued
timestamps, and allows setting the following [`LogEntry`](https://logging/docs/api/reference/rest/v2/LogEntry) fields:
`trace`, `sourceLocation`, and `operation`.

## August 31, 2017

Feature **Logs-based metrics** now support extracting values from log entries to create
distribution metrics and to populate user-defined metric labels. This lets
you create multiple time series in a single logs-based metric. Also, the latency
of logs-based metrics has dropped from approximately 5 minutes to 1 minute, so
you can respond more quickly to the metrics. For more information,
see [Overview of Logs-based metrics](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/logs-based-metrics.md.txt).
Feature **Exclusion filters** let you control which logs are kept in Stackdriver
Logging. The **Resource Usage** page in the Logs Viewer breaks down log volume
by resource type. For more information,
see [Excluding Logs](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/exclusions).
Change **Logging agent**: The Stackdriver Logging agent package has been updated to
version 1.5.17. The agent will now send smaller requests, improving log delivery
latency and increasing queries per second, which may affect users with high log
volumes. Also, the package's bundled Ruby has been updated to version 2.2.7. If
you have configuration snippets or extra gems that depend on older Ruby
features, you may have to update them.
Change **Pricing changes** : The free per-project allotment of logs is being increased
from 5 GB to 50 GB. Beginning December 1, 2017, we will enforce the new
limits and begin charging for logs kept in Stackdriver Logging above the limits.
For more information, see [Stackdriver Pricing](https://cloud.google.com/stackdriver/pricing).

## August 23, 2017

Feature **Aggregated Exports** : Organizations and folders can now export selected log
entries from all of their projects with a single sink created in the
organization or folder. For more information, see
[Aggregated Exports](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/export/aggregated_exports).
Change **Timestamp handling** . The following changes to log entry timestamps have been
made or are planned.
1. Logging does not modify the user-provided
`timestamp` field, except to set it to the current time if it is omitted. A
second field, `receivedTimestamp`, is set to the time Logging
receives the entry.
2. The `timestamp` field is used to compute the age of log entries and to
enforce the [log retention period](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/quotas.md.txt). Prior to the change, the
`receivedTimestamp` field is used for that purpose.
3. Logging discards log entries whose
timestamps are more than 24 hours in the future or
are further in the past than the log entry's retention period.
Prior to the change, future timestamps
and very old timestamps are handled in an unpredictable fashion.
For more information, see
[`LogEntry`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/reference/v2/rest/v2/LogEntry.md.txt)
and [`entries.write`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/reference/v2/rest/v2/entries/write.md.txt).

## July 10, 2017

information, see
Logging [Access Control](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/access-control.md.txt).

## June 05, 2017

Issue **Exported audit logs in BigQuery** : The BigQuery schema for exported audit log
entries changed on June 5, 2017. The following audit log components now have
shortened field names when they are exported to
BigQuery: `protoPayload`, `protoPayload.serviceData`,
`protoPayload.request`, and `protoPayload.response`. This
is a breaking change for queries involving these fields. For more information
see [Audit log field changes](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/export/using_exported_logs.md.txt#bigquery-overview).
Feature **Apps Script**: You can access your Apps Script logs in Logging.
Feature **Logs Viewer**: You can more easily expand all fields in a log entry.

## May 01, 2017

Feature Data access logs are now available and are user-configurable. See [Configuring Data Access Logs](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/audit/configure-data-access.md.txt).
Feature **Aggregated exports of logs** : You can now create log sinks in organizations, billing accounts, and folders. Those sinks can export log entries from all included projects. See [Aggregated Exports](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/export/aggregated_exports).
Deprecated **v1 API turndown: writeLogEntries** : As a final step in the v1 API turndown,
the v1 `WriteLogEntries` method will be shut down on October 1, 2017.
You must migrate any applications that write log entries using the v1 API. You
must also upgrade any manually-installed Logging agents in your
VM instances. Note: Obsolete link to migration information removed on December
13, 2017. For updated information, see [APIs \&
Reference](https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/apis).
Deprecated **v1 API turndown: sinks and logs-based metrics** : Migrate your remaining v1
export sinks and v1 logs-based metrics. If you do not, Logging
will migrate them by mid-July, 2017. Note: Obsolete link to migration
information removed on December 13, 2017. For updated information, see
[APIs \& Reference](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/apis.md.txt).

## April 01, 2017

Feature **Resource types**: Several new resource types are added, including types for Cloud Bigtable, Cloud Dataflow, and Cloud Container Engine.

## March 31, 2017

Change **V1 API turndown**: The date of the v1 API turndown has changed. See the release note for May 2017.
Change **Logging agent for Windows** : If you install the Logging agent on VM instances
running Microsoft Windows, be aware that there are restrictions
on the folders used for the installer and the installed agent. For details,
[Installing on Linux and Windows](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/agent/installation#joint-install).

## February 06, 2017

Feature **App Engine Flexible Environment**: For App Engine Flexible Environment, the Logs Viewer can
now display application log entries ("log lines") inside the log entry for the associated
service request. This is similar to the functionality in the App Engine Standard Environment.
Feature **Resuming log streaming**: The Logs Viewer now automatically resumes streaming logs when
its browser window or tab is selected. You no longer have to restart streaming when returning to the page.
Feature **Exporting logs from organizations, folders, and billing accounts** : The
[`gcloud logging`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/reference/tools/gcloud-logging.md.txt)
command-line tool now supports creating log sinks to export audit logs from organizations,
folders, and billing accounts. This feature also supported in the API.
Feature **Viewing multiple logs**: Previously in the Logs Viewer, you could view a single log or "all
logs" from a single resource type. Now you can select any number of
logs within a resource type to view, using the log name dropdown
menu.

For example, when viewing App Engine applications, the default is now to display log
entries from any of these logs: `ngnix.request`, `stdout`, `request log`, and `stderr`.
Change **Remove daily API quotas**: The Logging API no longer includes daily API quotas. The API still
enforces short-term (per 100s) quotas on API calls, as displayed in the Stackdriver Logging API dashboard.
Change **Deleting logs-based metrics in alerting policies** : Attempting to delete a
[logs-based metric](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/logs_based_metrics)
that is used in one or more Stackdriver Monitoring alerting policies now fails with the
status `FAILED_PRECONDITION`. You must remove the metric from the alerting policies or
delete the alerting policies prior to deleting the logs-based metric.
Issue **Logs retention and source restriction**: With the implementation of the Basic and Premium
service tiers in December 2016, Stackdriver Logging began enforcing retention and log source
restrictions for projects that are in the Stackdriver Basic tier or are not associated with
a Stackdriver account. In the Basic tier, log entries are visible for 7 days after they are
received, and logs from non-Google Cloud sources, including Amazon Web Services, are rejected.

## December 12, 2016

Change **Logs Viewer v2** : The Logs Viewer has been migrated to the Stackdriver Logging API v2.
For the full documentation, [Viewing Logs (v2)](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/overview). Note: Obsolete link to migration information removed on December 13, 2017. For updated
information, see [APIs \& Reference](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/apis.md.txt).
Feature **New LogEntry fields** : Fields `trace` and `sourceLocation` were added to
[`LogEntry`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/reference/rest/v2/LogEntry).
Feature **List logs** : the Stackdriver Logging API now has "list logs" methods:
[`organizations.logs.list`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/reference/rest/v2/organizations.logs/list) and
[`projects.logs.list`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/reference/rest/v2/projects.logs/list).

## November 21, 2016

Feature **Sinks** : The Stackdriver Logging API now allows both projects and organizations to own sinks.
In addition, sinks can now export log entries to destinations in other projects. See
[`LogSink`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/reference/rest/v2/organizations.sinks).
Feature **Organizations** : The Stackdriver Logging API now allows both projects and organizations to
own logs. A log belonging to an organization is named
`"organizations/[ORGANIZATION_ID]/logs/[LOG_ID]"`. See
[`organizations.logs.delete`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/reference/rest/v2/organizations.logs/delete).

## October 20, 2016

Feature Logging is generally available to Google Cloud Platform customers. Individual features that
are in Alpha or Beta release are marked as such in the documentation.
Change **Pricing** : Stackdriver is now available in Basic and Premium service tiers. All existing and
new Stackdriver accounts are entered into a 30-day free trial of the Premium Tier. At the end
of the trial period, you could lose some functionality you had during the Beta release unless
you upgrade to the Premium Tier. For more details, see
[Pricing](https://cloud.google.com/stackdriver/pricing).
Feature **API v2** : The Stackdriver Logging API v2 is generally available, providing a simplified log
format. During a transition period, you can use the same API at either of these two endpoints:
`https://logging.googleapis.com/v2beta1/...` or `https://logging.googleapis.com/v2/...`.
Deprecated **API v1** : The Stackdriver Logging API v1 (v1beta3) is deprecated. Users of this API should
migrate to the v2 API. The v1 API will be removed from service on March 30, 2017.
Note: Obsolete link to migration information removed on December 13, 2017. For updated
information, see
[APIs \& Reference](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/apis.md.txt).

## September 09, 2016

Change The Google Cloud Logging API is now known as the Stackdriver Logging API. This change does not affect any code.

## June 15, 2016

Change A change to the v2beta1 API might affect some existing code. In the following methods,
the parameter `projectName` has been changed to `parent`: `sinks.create`, `sinks.list`,
`metrics.list`, `metrics.create`.
Change The Google Logging API v2beta1 reference documentation now includes code snippets for each
method. For example, see
[`entries.list`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/ref_v2beta1/rest/v2beta1/entries/list).

[command-line interface](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/gcloud-logging) now support project sinks.
A project sink can export log entries from any combination of logs, based on
[advanced logs filters](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/advanced-queries).

## August 03, 2015

Feature Cloud Logging now has advanced logs filters that let you specify arbitrary Boolean expressions that
match on log entries. See
[Using advanced logs filters](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/advanced-queries)
in the Logs Viewer, and the
[Advanced Logs Filters guide](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/advanced-queries).

You no longer have to edit the agent's configuration file to install
[private-key authorization](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/agent/authorization).
Change The Logging documentation has been reorganized. The
[table of contents](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs.md.txt)
now groups all information about the logging agent, viewing logs, and exporting logs in
individual sections.

## May 21, 2015

Change A new Google Cloud console UI panel for the [logs export feature](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/export/configure_export)
was released. The UI lets you export a subset of your logs from a logs service. For example,
you could export `syslog` from Google Compute Engine without exporting `activity_log`.

## April 28, 2015

Feature You can now stream logs from Cloud Logging to [Google Cloud Pub/Sub](https://docs.cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs.md.txt)
and from there to your own endpoints. This involves changes to
[logs export](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/export/using_exported_logs.md.txt#pubsub-overview).
For example, use Cloud Pub/Sub to route logs through
[Google Cloud Dataflow](https://docs.cloud.google.com/dataflow/docs.md.txt)
and into tools like [Google BigQuery](https://docs.cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs.md.txt).

## March 19, 2015

Feature The `google-fluentd` logging agent supports
[two dozen third-party logs](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/logs_index).
Feature Cloud Logging is now available in Beta release, allowing you to configure, visualize,
analyze and export your Google Compute Engine and Google App Engine logs.
Feature The [Google Cloud Logging API](https://docs.cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api.md.txt) is now available in Beta release.
