No results when creating alert rule

Kevin Weslowski 0

I've been following this documentation for creating emergency users:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/role-based-access-control/security-emergency-access#monitor-sign-in-and-audit-logs

However, I'm unable to get any results when I'm creating and testing the alert rule.

What am I missing?

I originally overlooked the pre-requisites that were referenced in the documentation that corresponds to the link from the original post. In hindsight, comments to my original post could have encouraged me to go check my pre-requisites. While I eventually did check my pre-requisites, I spent too much time troubleshooting before checking my pre-requisites.

Hello Kevin Weslowski,

Thanks for your question.

It could be for a number of reasons. For detailed troubleshooting, I would recommend you review the documentation below:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/alerts/alerts-troubleshoot

After doing this, proceed to test the steps again on another user.

You can mark it 'Accept Answer' and 'Upvote' if this helped you

The provided link does not relate to my situation. My problem is with the lack of results while testing the query that should generate an alert. The article referenced has information about dealing with problems after the alert has been created.

Okay thanks for clarifying further. What exact query is not returning results? Further details?

I guess the sign in logs weren't getting streamed into the log analytics workspace. Once I explicitly set that up, it started working, albeit not right away (i.e. it started working the next morning).
