What you would like to accomplish:

when a sink is created to use log router to send the logs from a project to another to a cloud storage bucket.

If you choose the option Refine Scope and select the option Scope by storage to use the logs of the bucket that was created to receive the logs.

It shows all the logs, but when the press the button Actions -> Create Metric is chosen, it takes to the old version of log viewer without letting see the logs of the bucket.

How this might work:

The Option Create Metric should be able to create custom metrics from logs routed to buckets from other projects

As the option is listed in the documentation[1], option 13:

Actions: Lets you perform certain actions on your logs, such as creating a logs-based metric or a sink destination.

This is not only useful for IP addresses, but also for many other resources. I understand that names are currently used as identifiers, so this request is probably not trivial to implement. Maybe distinguishing between a (numeric, automatically generated) identifier and a (textual) label is the way to go?

Is it any hope? We have migrated our IP address to the server with different role, and now the name of this IP address resource doesn't match its role at all. It seems to be trivial enough to momentary reserve static IP address of the old named resource, drop resource, and immediately recreate it with the new name and the old IP address.

This would also improve life when using the Google Deployment Manager (since it otherwise error's out if you've changed a name of an IP)

Over 3 years to get something as basic as renaming a static IP address. Any progress here?
