CloudWatch Logs Describe Log Groups - BlinkOps Documentation

Lists the specified log groups. You can list all your log groups or filter the results by prefix. The results are ASCII-sorted by log group name. CloudWatch Logs doesn’t support IAM policies that control access to the DescribeLogGroups action by using the aws:ResourceTag/key-name condition key. Other CloudWatch Logs actions do support the use of the aws:ResourceTag/key-name condition key to control access. For more information about using tags to control access, see Controlling access to Amazon Web Services resources using tags.
