# Cloud Asset Feed

Cloud Asset Feed in Google Cloud lets you receive real-time updates about changes to your cloud resources and policies. It continuously streams asset metadata such as creation, deletion, or modification events to a specified destination like Pub/Sub. This helps maintain up-to-date visibility, automate compliance checks, and trigger workflows based on asset changes.

Only asset updates matching specified asset_names or asset_types are exported to the feed.

| condition            | core | json          | A condition which determines whether an asset update should be published. If specified, an asset will be returned only when the expression evaluates to true. When set, `expression` field in the `Expr` must be a valid [CEL expression] (https://github.com/google/cel-spec) on a TemporalAsset with name `temporal_asset`. Example: a Feed with expression ("temporal_asset.deleted == true") will only publish Asset deletions. Other fields of `Expr` are optional. See our [user guide](https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/monitoring-asset-changes-with-condition) for detailed instructions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |

| relationship_types   | core | array<string> | A list of relationship types to output, for example: `INSTANCE_TO_INSTANCEGROUP`. This field should only be specified if content_type=RELATIONSHIP. * If specified: it outputs specified relationship updates on the [asset_names] or the [asset_types]. It returns an error if any of the [relationship_types] doesn't belong to the supported relationship types of the [asset_names] or [asset_types], or any of the [asset_names] or the [asset_types] doesn't belong to the source types of the [relationship_types]. * Otherwise: it outputs the supported relationships of the types of [asset_names] and [asset_types] or returns an error if any of the [asset_names] or the [asset_types] has no replationship support.
