# AWS::Elasticsearch::Domain LogPublishingOption
<a name="aws-properties-elasticsearch-domain-logpublishingoption"></a>

**Important**  
The `AWS::Elasticsearch::Domain` resource is being replaced by the [AWS::OpenSearchService::Domain](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-opensearchservice-domain.html) resource. While the legacy Elasticsearch resource and options are still supported, we recommend modifying your existing Cloudformation templates to use the new OpenSearch Service resource, which supports both OpenSearch and Elasticsearch. For more information about the service rename, see [New resource types](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/opensearch-service/latest/developerguide/rename.html#rename-resource) in the *Amazon OpenSearch Service Developer Guide*.

Specifies whether the OpenSearch Service domain publishes the Elasticsearch application, search slow logs, or index slow logs to Amazon CloudWatch. Each option must be an object of name `SEARCH_SLOW_LOGS`, `ES_APPLICATION_LOGS`, `INDEX_SLOW_LOGS`, or `AUDIT_LOGS` depending on the type of logs you want to publish.

If you enable a slow log, you still have to enable the *collection* of slow logs using the Configuration API. To learn more, see [Enabling log publishing (Amazon CLI)](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/opensearch-service/latest/developerguide/createdomain-configure-slow-logs.html#createdomain-configure-slow-logs-cli).
