Event Generation

The Google Cloud Storage destination can generate events that you can use in an event stream. When you enable event generation, Google Cloud Storage generates event records each time the destination completes writing to an object or completes streaming a whole file.

Google Cloud Storage events can be used in any logical way. For example:

With the Google Cloud Storage executor to perform tasks after writing an object or whole file.
With the Email executor to send a custom email after receiving an event.
For an example, see Sending Email During Pipeline Processing.
With a destination to store event information.
For an example, see Preserving an Audit Trail of Events.
