From Command Line

First, if a log group for holding these logs has not already been created, create a log group by the following steps:

1. Create a log group:

oci logging log-group create --compartment-id <compartment-id> \ --display-name "<DisplayName>" \ --description "<Description>"

The output of the command gives you a work request id. You can query the work request to see the status of the job by issuing the following command:

oci logging work-request get --work-request-id <output from command above>

Look for status filed to be SUCCEEDED.

Second, enable Object Storage write log logging for your bucket(s) by the following steps:

2. Get the Log group ID needed for creating the Log:

oci logging log-group list --compartment-id <compartment-id> \ --query 'data[?contains("display-name", `'"<DisplayName>"'`)].id|join(`\n`, @)' \ --raw-output

3. Create a JSON file called config.json with the following content:

{
  "compartmentid":"ocid1.compartment.oc1..aaaaaaaamaywlaznovmvdwk3uqx2sedfavssagba5cxufe6wy llqgwzcq43a",
  "source": {
    "resource": "<bucket-name.",
    "service": "ObjectStorage",
    "source-type": "OCISERVICE",
    "category": "write"
  }
}

The compartment-id is the Compartment OCID of where the bucket is exists. The resource value is the bucket name.

4. Create the Service Log:

oci logging log create --log-group-id <value from step 2.> \ --display-name "<DisplayName>" \ --log-type SERVICE --is-enabled TRUE \ --configuration file://config.json

The output of the command gives you a work request id. You can query the work request to see that status of the job by issuing the following command:

oci logging work-request get --work-request-id <output from command above>

Look for the status filed to be SUCCEEDED.
