Logging: Exceptions logged in google-cloud-logging-logback do not show in Error Reporting Console

[tpapaj-CKPL]

I am using Logging and I send logs using google-cloud-logging-logback. I want to use Error Reporting from an application that will run outside of Google Cloud. According to official documentation: https://cloud.google.com/error-reporting/docs/setup/java

Exceptions logged using the Stackdriver Logback Appender or java.util.logging Stackdriver Handler are automatically reported to the Error Reporting console.

However this is not true and exceptions do not show in Error Reporting. They are correctly logged and can be seen in log viewer.

Environment details

2. OS type and version: Ubuntu 16.04
3. Java version: Java 8
4. google-cloud-java version(s): com.google.cloud:google-cloud-logging-logback:0.116.0-alpha

Steps to reproduce

• Add dependency com.google.cloud:google-cloud-logging-logback:0.116.0-alpha and logback dependencies to Java project
• Configure logback
• Get a logger using Slf4j and try to log an exception running code below

Code example

Code examples below send a log to Google Logging and can be seen in viewer but not found in Error Reporting. The documentation does not show how exceptions should be logged so this is what I did:

log.error("Some message ", new RuntimeException("Exception"));

log.error("", new RuntimeException("Exception"));

log.error(Arrays.stream(new RuntimeException("Exception").getStackTrace())
                        .map(StackTraceElement::toString)
                        .collect(Collectors.joining("\n")));

Any additional information below

Using logback version 1.2.3

I think the cause is the fact that according to Error Reporting documentation: https://cloud.google.com/error-reporting/docs/formatting-error-messages a field serviceContext is a required one, there is no way to include it using google-cloud-logging-logback enhancers.
