Description
We want to analyze TRE logs to understand the actions a user performed — for example:
- “Create Workspace” or “Create VM”
- Navigating into a workspace to view details
In Log Analytics:
- The Requests table captures requests, but does not include user identifiers.
- The Traces table also lacks this context.
I know that Cosmos DB entries store these operations and can be queried through Swagger. Is there a way to obtain user-specific action details directly from TRE logs, or is Cosmos DB currently the only reliable source for this information
