Description

Currently, terraform azurerm provider has some [requirement](terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm#6645) to expose the [FileSystemApplicationLogsConfig](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/appservice/webapps/updatediagnosticlogsconfig#filesystemapplicationlogsconfig). In portal, there is a "question mark" says this setting will be disabled automatically in 12 hours, like below:

However, I didn't find anywhere else announce this behavior.

Because of the "declarative" nature of terraform, we would want the state keep stale after user's change, so I would like to confirm if this is still the case. If yes, then is it possible to allow user to suppress the auto disable behavior?

Research direction

Start with the linked terraform-provider-azurerm#6645 requirement and the App Service updatediagnosticlogsconfig documentation; verify whether filesystem application logs are time-limited and whether the REST API exposes a suppression option. Done means the behavior is confirmed and any required API-spec change is precisely identified.
