Use Cases

When creating AWS CloudWatch log groups, there are two types: standard and infrequent access (see: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/logs/CloudWatch_Logs_Log_Classes.html).

By default, the create_missing_group will select the standard type. There are no options to select which type of log group to create.

Attempted Solutions

Workaround

We can create the log group manually through the AWS CLI or interface and then disable create_missing_group. We point vector to the pre-created log group and it would work.

This works if you have a low number of log groups, but if you have hundreds or if the log groups are dynamically generated, this is not feasible.

Proposal

Have an option to select the type of log group via the create_missing_group
