Audit logging for Firebase Management

This document describes audit logging for Firebase Management, including which methods generate audit logs, details about the audit logs each method produces, and which methods do not produce audit logs, if any. Google Cloud generates audit logs that record administrative and access activities within your Google Cloud resources. For more information, see Cloud Audit Logs overview, this page includes information on how to view audit logs, how to store and route them, and more.

Service name

Firebase Management audit logs use the service name firebase.googleapis.com. Filter for this service: 

    protoPayload.serviceName="firebase.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, Firebase Management 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.
