You can find out more about authentication and authorization for {{gcp_name}} APIs in the [Authentication guide](/docs/authentication/getting-started). ## Data model The {{error_reporting_api_short}} defines three entities: error events, error groups, and error group stats. The [error group stats](#error-group-stats) object is the object that most users will interact with most frequently. ### Error events An [`ErrorEvent`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/ErrorEvent) represents a single occurrence of an error in your application. The object contains information about the error, such as the time at which it occurred, the context in which it occurred, and the error message that was returned. An error event is guaranteed to be available for at least 30 days after being generated. ### Error groups [`ErrorGroup`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groups#ErrorGroup) objects are logically-grouped collections of error events. Grouping is based on information in the error event's stack trace. An error group is a simple object containing only the name, group ID, and any associated tracking issues for the group. To update tracking issues URLs, use this resource's `update` method. ### Error group stats [`ErrorGroupStats`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groupStats/list#ErrorGroupStats) objects contain detailed information about an error group, and are the API objects that you will interact with most frequently. Information in the `groupStats` object includes the first and last time an error event in this group occurred, the count, the number of affected users, and more. This object is useful when building widgets and custom dashboards. ## Operations The {{error_reporting_api_short}} supports the following operations: * Report a new error event * List error group stats * List error events * Get error groups * Update an error group's tracking issues ### Report error events You can report error events from your running services by writing them to [`ReportedErrorEvent`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.events/report#ReportedErrorEvent). Doing this generates [properly formatted error messages](/error-reporting/docs/formatting-error-messages) in {{logging_name}}. The resulting log name is formatted as `projects//clouderrorreporting.googleapis.com%2Freported_errors`. You might incur minor {{logging_name}} ingestion costs using this method; to control these costs, review [Logs exclusions](/logging/docs/exclusions). You can also report new error events to {{error_reporting_name}} by assembling [error event entities](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.events/report#ReportedErrorEvent) from your running service and sending them to the `events.report` method. ### List error group stats To get a list of error group stats, send a request to the [`groupStats.list`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groupStats/list) method. You can pass one or more [query parameters](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groupStats/list#body.QUERY_PARAMETERS) to filter the group stats that are returned. ### List error events To get a list of error events belonging to a specific error group, send a request to the [`events.list`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.events/list) method. You can pass a filter condition to these requests to retrieve only those error events that occurred between a specific start and end time, or those that match specific [service contexts](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/ServiceContextFilter). ### Get error groups To retrieve a specific error group resource, send a request to the [`groups.get`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groups/get) method. ### Update error groups To update the tracking issue URLs associated with an error group, send an updated [`ErrorGroup` resource](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groups#ErrorGroup) to the [`groups.update`](/error-reporting/reference/rest/v1beta1/projects.groups/update) method. authentication: rules: - selector: google.devtools.clouderrorreporting.v1beta1.ErrorGroupService.GetGroup oauth: canonical_scopes: |- https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform - selector: google.devtools.clouderrorreporting.v1beta1.ErrorGroupService.UpdateGroup oauth: canonical_scopes: |- https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform - selector: 'google.devtools.clouderrorreporting.v1beta1.ErrorStatsService.*' oauth: canonical_scopes: |- https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform - selector: google.devtools.clouderrorreporting.v1beta1.ReportErrorsService.ReportErrorEvent oauth: canonical_scopes: |- https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
