Hello,

You can bring in postgresql logs from AWS, but they must generate certain permissions in the AWS IAM and through AWS Elastic integrations can be done.

Configuration in AWS

cloudwatch logs

CloudWatch
configuration ELK

AWS permissions for ELK
AWS-Permissions

AWS Permissions

Specific AWS permissions are required for the IAM user to make specific AWS API calls. To enable the AWS integration to collect metrics and logs from all supported services, make sure these permissions are given:

  • ec2:DescribeInstances
  • ec2:DescribeRegions
  • cloudwatch:GetMetricData
  • cloudwatch:ListMetrics
  • iam:ListAccountAliases
  • rds:DescribeDBInstances
  • rds:ListTagsForResource
  • s3:GetObject
  • sns:ListTopics
  • sqs:ChangeMessageVisibility
  • sqs:DeleteMessage
  • sqs:ListQueues
  • sqs:ReceiveMessage
  • sts:AssumeRole
  • sts:GetCallerIdentity
  • tag:GetResources

or else you can integrate the metrics part of postgresql only.
