Explanation:
Option B is correct because creating a custom log-based metric for the specific error and using it in an Alerting Policy enables real-time notifications if the error recurs. This directly addresses the need for immediate alerts. Option A, while useful for log analysis, does not provide alerting capabilities. Option C allows for viewing relevant logs but lacks notification features. Option D is not recommended as it violates the principle of least privilege by granting excessive permissions, which does not solve the alerting requirement. For more details, refer to Google Cloud's documentation on logs-based metrics and error reporting notifications.
