# Getting information about a log sink

{% list tabs group=instructions %}

- Management console {#console}

  1. In the [management console](https://console.yandex.cloud), go to the folder with the log sink.
  1. [Go](../../console/operations/select-service.md#select-service) to **Cloud Logging**.
  1. In the left-hand panel, select ![image](../../_assets/console-icons/folder-arrow-down.svg) **Sinks**.
  1. Select the log sink.
  1. The **Overview** page will show the log sink details.

- CLI {#cli}

  If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, [install and initialize it](../../cli/quickstart.md#install).

  The folder used by default is the one specified when [creating](../../cli/operations/profile/profile-create.md) the CLI profile. To change the default folder, use the `yc config set folder-id <folder_ID>` command. You can also specify a different folder for any command using `--folder-name` or `--folder-id`. If you access a resource by its name, the search will be limited to the default folder. If you access a resource by its ID, the search will be global, i.e., through all folders based on access permissions.

  To find out the ID or name of a log sink, [get](list-sink.md) a list of sinks in the folder.

  To get information about a log sink, run this command:

  ```bash
  yc logging sink get <sink_name>
  ```

  Result:

  ```text
  id: e23e73lehbfv********
  folder_id: b1gmit33ngp3********
  cloud_id: b1gia87mbaom********
  created_at: "2023-11-07T09:22:28.946Z"
  name: test-sink
  service_account_id: ajejeis235ma********
  s3:
    bucket: test-bucket
  ```

- API {#api}

  To get log sink details, use the [get](../api-ref/Sink/get.md) REST API method for the [Sink](../api-ref/Sink/index.md) resource or the [SinkService/Get](../api-ref/grpc/Sink/get.md) gRPC API call.
