Description

A Search Job is an asynchronous query that runs on any data in your Log Analytics workspace, including data from the long-term retention period, making the results available for further queries in a new Analytics table within your workspace.  

We’ve recently improved Search Job capabilities with the following updates:    

  • Intuitive and streamlined UI experience for easier setup.

  • Cost estimation preview before running a Search Job.

  • Enhanced concurrency, allowing more jobs to run in parallel and removing additional limits.

  • Increased result limits, supporting up to 100 million results - coming soon.

  • Expanded KQL support and other enhancements are coming soon.
