Azure Monitor Logs is excited to introduce the next leap in log experience: Simple mode.
Azure Monitor Logs offers a powerful set of capabilities for users to explore their logs and derive meaningful insights from their data estate.
Until now, Azure Monitor Logs relied on Kusto Query Language (KQL) for users to express their questions as queries.
KQL is a powerful, easy to learn query language, however, as any query language it requires some knowledge to operate.
Simple mode experience was created to bridge this knowledge gap - allowing most popular KQL operators and actions to be utilized using a very simple, point-and-click experience requiring no KQL knowledge at all!
KQL Mode gives advanced users the full power of KQL to derive deeper insights from their logs.
Here's a link to a video that provides a quick overview of how to query logs in Log Analytics using both Simple and KQL modes
We also recommend reviewing the feature's official documentation here.
