Description

Use the new automatic resource allocation feature to define a data connection from any Azure Storage to Azure Data Explorer database. Automatic resource allocation rapidly defines continuous ingestion flow from Azure Storage to Azure Data Explorer using Azure Event Grid. Azure Data Explorer will create an Event Grid subscription, an Azure Event Hub namespace, and an Event Hub for users, enabling an intuitive, continuous ingestion definition.

Read a detailed explanation of how to create an Event Grid subscription manually.
