Export Logs to Google Pub/Sub

Ensure that you have Cloud Storage Audit Logs configured in GCP (opens in a new tab).

Enter a suitable Subscription ID and leave the delivery type as pull.

We don't need to change anything further at this stage, scroll to the bottom and choose CREATE to create the Subscription.

Create Service Account

Now in service accounts (opens in a new tab), choose the project you're working with.

Then select CREATE SERVICE ACCOUNT, this account will be used to retrieve logs from the Pub/Sub and send them to Logit.io.
