Not able to get the M Query for Log Analytics Custom data.

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I have tried to get the Power Query (M Query) for the Log Analytics data as mentioned in the blog: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/log-query/get-started-portal. I could successfully query the logs in the Azure workspace but I am not able to export the queries to M Query as this option is not enabled. 

Following is the screenshot for the same. 

As an alternative, I have created a log file in the Log Analytics in the advanced settings as displayed below. Here the problem I am facing is when trying to run the query is that it retrieves a message saying no data foind in the past 24/48hrs/3 days/ 7 days though it has the data components in mentioned time line.

Could someone please help me with a solution to export the Query from Log Analytics especially for a custom log component. 

Many thanks in advance.

Hi @Anonymous 

Please check if you create log queries in Azure Monitor.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/log-query/log-query-overview

Then follow this guide to connect to Log Analytics data with Power BI.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/powerbi
