Application Logs can not be forward though Diagnostic setting

Question

I have a azure function app, and i want to forward the application log to storage account for the future analysis & monitoring. However, the metrics are forwarded successfully, but the application log can not be seen, also we configured a event hub as another destination, but still, only the metrics can be seen, not the application logs.

The application log should be seen in Blob Storage

Answer 1

I was able to get the logs in azure storage account using this method. I have create a function app with timer trigger function timer_trigger.

You can do the settings in either Function App OR Application Insights.

I have performed action in Application insights.

• Open Application Insights of the Function App.
• Go to Monitoring -> Diagnostic settings -> add diagnostic setting
• create a Diagnostic setting and select all logs and select Archieve to storage account and Save it.
• After some time, the logs will start to save in storage account in blob with name insights-logs-<category name>.

Note:- sometimes it takes time to generate logs through diagnostic settings.

When you create Diagnostic Setting in **Function App ** only two option will be available. logs will be saved in blob name with same insights-logs-<category name> and Providers show as Microsoft.web as shown below:
