Setting up Amazon S3 log delivery

To send capacity provider system logs to Amazon S3, create a CloudWatch Logs subscription filter on your capacity provider's log group. The subscription filter routes log events to your Amazon S3 bucket.

By default, your capacity provider's log group is named /aws/lambda/capacity-provider/<capacity-provider-name>. Use this log group when creating the subscription filter.

For instructions on setting up a subscription filter for Amazon S3, including IAM role creation and bucket permissions, see Sending Lambda function logs to Amazon S3.

Cross-account logging

You can configure your capacity provider to send logs to an Amazon S3 bucket in a different AWS account. This requires setting up a destination and configuring appropriate permissions in both accounts.

For instructions on setting up cross-account logging, including required IAM roles and policies, see Setting up a new cross-account subscription in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
