These services are listed as Supported [V2 Permissions] in the table at Enabling logging from Amazon Web Services services. A delivery destination can represent a log group in CloudWatch Logs, an Amazon S3 bucket, or a delivery stream in Firehose. To configure logs delivery between a supported Amazon Web Services service and a destination, you must do the following:
You can configure a single delivery source to send logs to multiple destinations by creating multiple deliveries. You can also create multiple deliveries to configure multiple delivery sources to send logs to the same delivery destination. To update an existing delivery configuration, use UpdateDeliveryConfiguration. |

|
CreateLogAnomalyDetectorRequest |
Container for the parameters to the CreateLogAnomalyDetector operation. Creates an anomaly detector that regularly scans one or more log groups and look for patterns and anomalies in the logs. An anomaly detector can help surface issues by automatically discovering anomalies in your log event traffic. An anomaly detector uses machine learning algorithms to scan log events and find patterns. A pattern is a shared text structure that recurs among your log fields. Patterns provide a useful tool for analyzing large sets of logs because a large number of log events can often be compressed into a few patterns.
The anomaly detector uses pattern recognition to find
Fields within a pattern are called tokens. Fields that vary within a pattern,
such as a request ID or timestamp, are referred to as dynamic tokens and represented
by The following is an example of a pattern:
This pattern represents log events like Any parts of log events that are masked as sensitive data are not scanned for anomalies. For more information about masking sensitive data, see Help protect sensitive log data with masking. |

CreateLogGroupRequest |
Container for the parameters to the CreateLogGroup operation. Creates a log group with the specified name. You can create up to 1,000,000 log groups per Region per account. You must use the following guidelines when naming a log group:
When you create a log group, by default the log events in the log group do not expire. To set a retention policy so that events expire and are deleted after a specified time, use PutRetentionPolicy. If you associate an KMS key with the log group, ingested data is encrypted using the KMS key. This association is stored as long as the data encrypted with the KMS key is still within CloudWatch Logs. This enables CloudWatch Logs to decrypt this data whenever it is requested.
If you attempt to associate a KMS key with the log group but the KMS key does not
exist or the KMS key is disabled, you receive an CloudWatch Logs supports only symmetric KMS keys. Do not associate an asymmetric KMS key with your log group. For more information, see Using Symmetric and Asymmetric Keys. |

PutAccountPolicyRequest |
Container for the parameters to the PutAccountPolicy operation. Creates an account-level data protection policy, subscription filter policy, or field index policy that applies to all log groups or a subset of log groups in the account. Data protection policy A data protection policy can help safeguard sensitive data that's ingested by your log groups by auditing and masking the sensitive log data. Each account can have only one account-level data protection policy. Sensitive data is detected and masked when it is ingested into a log group. When you set a data protection policy, log events ingested into the log groups before that time are not masked.
If you use
By default, when a user views a log event that includes masked data, the sensitive
data is replaced by asterisks. A user who has the For more information, including a list of types of data that can be audited and masked, see Protect sensitive log data with masking.
To use the
The Subscription filter policy A subscription filter policy sets up a real-time feed of log events from CloudWatch Logs to other Amazon Web Services services. Account-level subscription filter policies apply to both existing log groups and log groups that are created later in this account. Supported destinations are Kinesis Data Streams, Firehose, and Lambda. When log events are sent to the receiving service, they are Base64 encoded and compressed with the GZIP format. The following destinations are supported for subscription filters:
Each account can have one account-level subscription filter policy per Region. If
you are updating an existing filter, you must specify the correct name in Transformer policy Creates or updates a log transformer policy for your account. You use log transformers to transform log events into a different format, making them easier for you to process and analyze. You can also transform logs from different sources into standardized formats that contain relevant, source-specific information. After you have created a transformer, CloudWatch Logs performs this transformation at the time of log ingestion. You can then refer to the transformed versions of the logs during operations such as querying with CloudWatch Logs Insights or creating metric filters or subscription filters. You can also use a transformer to copy metadata from metadata keys into the log events themselves. This metadata can include log group name, log stream name, account ID and Region. A transformer for a log group is a series of processors, where each processor applies one type of transformation to the log events ingested into this log group. For more information about the available processors to use in a transformer, see Processors that you can use. Having log events in standardized format enables visibility across your applications for your log analysis, reporting, and alarming needs. CloudWatch Logs provides transformation for common log types with out-of-the-box transformation templates for major Amazon Web Services log sources such as VPC flow logs, Lambda, and Amazon RDS. You can use pre-built transformation templates or create custom transformation policies. You can create transformers only for the log groups in the Standard log class.
You can have one account-level transformer policy that applies to all log groups in
the account. Or you can create as many as 20 account-level transformer policies that
are each scoped to a subset of log groups with the
You can also set up a transformer at the log-group level. For more information, see
PutTransformer.
If there is both a log-group level transformer created with Field index policy You can use field index policies to create indexes on fields found in log events in the log group. Creating field indexes can help lower the scan volume for CloudWatch Logs Insights queries that reference those fields, because these queries attempt to skip the processing of log events that are known to not match the indexed field. Good fields to index are fields that you often need to query for and fields or values that match only a small fraction of the total log events. Common examples of indexes include request ID, session ID, user IDs, or instance IDs. For more information, see Create field indexes to improve query performance and reduce costs To find the fields that are in your log group events, use the GetLogGroupFields operation.
For example, suppose you have created a field index for

PutIndexPolicyRequest |
Container for the parameters to the PutIndexPolicy operation. Creates or updates a field index policy for the specified log group. Only log groups in the Standard log class support field index policies. For more information about log classes, see Log classes. You can use field index policies to create field indexes on fields found in log events in the log group. Creating field indexes speeds up and lowers the costs for CloudWatch Logs Insights queries that reference those field indexes, because these queries attempt to skip the processing of log events that are known to not match the indexed field. Good fields to index are fields that you often need to query for and fields or values that match only a small fraction of the total log events. Common examples of indexes include request ID, session ID, userID, and instance IDs. For more information, see Create field indexes to improve query performance and reduce costs.

PutMetricFilterRequest |
Container for the parameters to the PutMetricFilter operation. Creates or updates a metric filter and associates it with the specified log group. With metric filters, you can configure rules to extract metric data from log events ingested through PutLogEvents. The maximum number of metric filters that can be associated with a log group is 100. Using regular expressions to create metric filters is supported. For these filters, there is a quota of two regular expression patterns within a single filter pattern. There is also a quota of five regular expression patterns per log group. For more information about using regular expressions in metric filters, see Filter pattern syntax for metric filters, subscription filters, filter log events, and Live Tail. When you create a metric filter, you can also optionally assign a unit and dimensions to the metric that is created.
Metrics extracted from log events are charged as custom metrics. To prevent unexpected
high charges, do not specify high-cardinality fields such as CloudWatch Logs might disable a metric filter if it generates 1,000 different name/value pairs for your specified dimensions within one hour. You can also set up a billing alarm to alert you if your charges are higher than expected. For more information, see Creating a Billing Alarm to Monitor Your Estimated Amazon Web Services Charges. |

PutRetentionPolicyRequest |
Container for the parameters to the PutRetentionPolicy operation.
Sets the retention of the specified log group. With a retention policy, you can configure
the number of days for which to retain log events in the specified log group.
CloudWatch Logs doesn't immediately delete log events when they reach their retention
setting. It typically takes up to 72 hours after that before log events are deleted,
but in rare situations might take longer.
To illustrate, imagine that you change a log group to have a longer retention setting
when it contains log events that are past the expiration date, but haven't been deleted.
Those log events will take up to 72 hours to be deleted after the new retention date
is reached. To make sure that log data is deleted permanently, keep a log group at
its lower retention setting until 72 hours after the previous retention period ends.
Alternatively, wait to change the retention setting until you confirm that the earlier
log events are deleted.
When log events reach their retention setting they are marked for deletion. After
they are marked for deletion, they do not add to your archival storage costs anymore,
even if they are not actually deleted until later. These log events marked for deletion
are also not included when you use an API to retrieve the |

After you have created a transformer, CloudWatch Logs performs the transformations at the time of log ingestion. You can then refer to the transformed versions of the logs during operations such as querying with CloudWatch Logs Insights or creating metric filters or subscription filers. You can also use a transformer to copy metadata from metadata keys into the log events themselves. This metadata can include log group name, log stream name, account ID and Region. A transformer for a log group is a series of processors, where each processor applies one type of transformation to the log events ingested into this log group. The processors work one after another, in the order that you list them, like a pipeline. For more information about the available processors to use in a transformer, see Processors that you can use.
