events stanza

The events stanza configures Boundary events-specific parameters.

Example:

events {
  observations_enabled = true
  sysevents_enabled = true
  telemetry_enabled = false
  sink "stderr" {
    name = "all-events"
    description = "All events sent to stderr"
    event_types = ["*"]
    format = "hclog-text"
  }
  sink {
    name = "obs-sink"
    description = "Observations sent to a file"
    event_types = ["observation"]
    format = "cloudevents-json"
    file {
      path = "/var/log/boundary"
      file_name = "events.ndjson"
    }
  }
}

audit_enabled - Specifies if audit events should be emitted.
observations_enabled - Specifies if observation events should be emitted.
sysevents_enabled - Specifies if system events should be emitted.
telemetry_enabled - Specifies if telemetry events should be emitted. To receive telemetry events, you must also set observations_enabled to true.
sink - Specifies the configuration of an event sink. Currently, two types of sink are supported: file and stderr. If no sinks are configured then all events will be sent to a default stderr sink. Events may be sent to multiple sinks.

Default events stanza

If no event stanza is specified then the following default is used:

events {
  audit_enabled = false
  observations_enabled = true
  sysevents_enabled = true
  telemetry_enabled = false
  sink "stderr" {
    name = "default"
    event_types = ["*"]
    format = "cloudevents-json"
  }
}
