Description

Azure Monitoring Agent now supports collection of JSON for ingestion into Log Analytics.

Today we are happy to announce the public preview JSON Log collection for AMA. This new capability is designed to enable customers to collect their JSON formatted logs generated in their service or application and ingested into a Log Analytics Workspace table for analysis.

You must be using the AMA agent to use custom JSON logs. The MMA agent is being deprecated, so now is a good time to migrate to AMA.  See migration guidance and migration tools for more information. Collect JSON Logs.
