I'm building a CodeStar project and want to create a CloudTrail trail to record its events - more specifically, the events found in the documentation here. On the page where I can create a trail, I am unable to select anything related to CodeStar under the "Data events" section. However, I am able to search for CodeStar related events under the "Event history" section.
Does this mean that the events listed in the documentation are Management events?
Yes, the events mentioned in the document you shared are Management events as they are control plane operations. Data events are only related to S3 and Lambda.

How would I detect a Google Tag Manager publish event and send that to an external system?
I am trying to pinpoint effects of specific tag changes for certain properties and correlate them in a graph the way I might do with a new GitHub tag being created.
I've looked thru documentation but have not uncovered anything yet specifically for this scenario.
You could user container notifications to have an email sent to some service that processes the mail and stores the information.
Or you can use the API, retrieve the container fingerprint and compare it against a stored version of the fingerprint to see if it has changed. This would require you do implement some sort of polling in the API script to check every n minutes for changes.
I would like to now if the following functionality is supported by google calendar api:
Does the functionality provided by "Push notifications" include new events or just existing ones. Here is a copy paste from the documentation that let me doubt that new event notifications are supported "The Google Calendar API provides push notifications that let you watch for changes to resources.". So does this only apply to already existing resources (events on my case).
Is there a way to limit the availability on the google calendar. By this I mean setting a general limit (i.e working hours for a company for example from 9am to 5pm). And putting the logic further, is there a way to add more constraints. For example after I receive a notification of a new event created (if this functionality is provided), I check the event's data in my web-hook and let google calendar know that this event shouldn't be considered as valid.
If these requirements are not provided already by google calendar API, I am open to any suggestions to accomplish this even if it takes more coding.
Just to make it clear. The context of these questions is when the user creates an event in their google calendar through google calendar web interface not through my application.
Does anybody know if Google provides an API to programmatically retrieve the current usage of firestore?
More precisely, I'm referring to the current number of read & write operations, as shown here:
As your screenshot indicates, Firestore provide a Monitor to check the usage of your plan. Unfortunately, though, there is not an API to programmatically return the usage of your Firestore.
However, as mentioned in the official documentation Monitoring usage, you can create an alert policy to track your metrics and send an email to you, based on limits that you set, informing that the usage reached this certain point defined.
The steps for you to achieve the configuration are the following:
In the Cloud Monitoring Page, open your workspace, and go to the
Alerting page.
Go to the Create New Alerting Policy page
Click Create Policy.
Enter a name for your alerting policy.
Add an alerting condition based on one of the Cloud Firestore
metrics. Click Add Condition.
Select a Target. In the Find resource type and metric field, enter
Cloud Firestore. From the auto-populated dropdown, select one of the
Cloud Firestore metrics.
Under Policy triggers, use the dropdown fields to define your
alerting condition.
Add a notification channel to your alerting policy. Under
Notifications, Click Add Notification Channel. Select Email from the
dropdown menu.
Enter your email in the Email address field. Click Add.
Optionally, fill out the documentation field to include additional
information in your email notification.
Click Save.
I believe this should help you, even though it's not an API was you might prefer. Besides that, I would recommend you to raise a Feature Request on Google's system for them to check the possibility of this be implemented in the future.
Let me know if the information helped you!
I'm having trouble understanding what's the benefit of registering the custom parameters of a custom event in the Firebase Analytics console.
Is it for analyzing the data or for logging the data?
If I don't register the custom parameters, will the events still being logged successfully?
If I want to analyze the data in BigQuery, will I first have to register these parameters in the Firebase console?
If I'm using more custom parameters in my app than the "Global parameter reporting quota" of Firebase, then will these events still being logged? Or I might "lose" the data for these events?
I've read the documentation thoroughly but it's not clear how the custom parameters are being handled.
I will answer my questions since I now have a clearer picture:
TL;DR: If you want to analyze the custom parameters in the Firebase console, you first have to register them. If you want to analyze them in BigQuery, you don't have to register them, but you need to link your project to BigQuery before you start logging these events.
The events and custom parameters will be always being logged, regardless if you register the parameters in the Firebase console or not.
Yes, the events will be logged as well as the custom parameters, HOWEVER, in the Firebase console, you won't have access to the data of the custom parameters unless you register them. And currently there is a limit of 10 text parameters and 40 numeric parameters. So registering the parameters in the console will allow you to analyze these parameters in the Firebase console.
NO, BigQuery will have the data for all events and parameters even if you don't register the parameters in the Firebase console. HOWEVER you need to link your project to BigQuery (requires a payment plan), BEFORE you start logging the events in the app. BigQuery will have access to everything from the time you link the project and onwards.
Previous answers apply to this question as well.

Answer to your questions in same order:
Both logging and analysis. Firebase provide a fancy interface for custom parameters too with a graph and number of times they have been logged.
2.Yes
Yes and also export the data to Big Query.
Events would be logged but not the custom parameters if limits are exceeded. Check out the doc for parameters limits.
we have events listing website and events from different organizers are grouped (by URL), like -
www.site.com/organizer/event1
www.site.com/organizer/event2
www.site.com/organizer/event3
etc. How to give an organizer an access only to his/her part of the site's Google Analytics?
Easy way -
An organizer registers in Google Analytics
An organizer creates a counter in Google Analytics
An organizer sets this counter in his/her profile on our website.
We add this counter to our Google Analytics code on www.site.com/organizer/* pages
He/she clicks on some link in the profile and sees the GA stat only for own events.
The way I want it:
He/she clicks on some link in the profile and sees the GA stat only for own events.
Is this possible with some API to separate statistics for www.site.com/organizer/* and share a private link to it with organizer?
After reading your comments in another answer (which is basically just a copy of the comment I left on your question). I have changed my recommendation left in comment, think you should use the Google Analytics API for this.
Since you want to give others access to your own data I suggest you use a service account. You will need to do this in a server sided programing language, say PHP or C#.
Every night run a job that will extract the data you want though the Core reporting API. Store it in the database then create a page that will then display only the data you want to the different people. You will only need to run your job once per day as the data for previous days will never change. Wait at least 24 hours to get the data as data hasn't completed processing for 24 hours.
I am not sure what language plan on using but these tutorials should get you started: Google Service Account with PHP or Google Analytics API Authentication with C#
I would create different profile views with filters to include only the subset of data for the subpages.
This way, you can add a specific user access rights to that specific profile only, so they can only view that profile when they log in.
Create an include only filter which filters on Request URI: /organizer/event1, /organizer/event2, /organizer/event3 etc.
