How to watch logs and make advanced logging queries on Cloud Logging

Having already learned how to create log events in Cloud Logging, it is time to understand how we can take advantage of this stored information to diagnose errors or problems in our applications.

For that, we will begin by looking at the execution of simple to more complex queries that allow us to reach the information we are looking for.
