But there's actually an even slicker way to do this, which is if we go over to Log Router, and I go ahead and I create a sink here, this sink could actually have as a destination BigQuery. So I've already set that up. You can see here it's right here, this BigQuery dataset. So all I need to do is actually go over to BigQuery itself and try it out. So let's go ahead and go to BigQuery. Here we go. And what happens with BigQuery is that you can see my project is now included as a dataset, and if we go into testlogs, we can actually look at all the different logs that have been sent inside of here.
