Hi,
I was scrolling down the Azure Monitor Agent docs and was wondering following: When destination is Azure Monitor Metrics how can I decide which Log Analytics the data will be saves because seems that that part is not configurable?

    Azure Monitor Metrics is a performance table that is built into the subscription. When the destination is "Metrics" you cannot specify a workspace name. Metrics is the destination.

    Change the Destination to "Azure Monitor Logs" to set the workspace name.

    Hi Bombbe,
    the workspace is specified in the data collection rule. I'm seeing more use of DCRs in Azure...

    reference:
    data-collection-rule-azure-monitor-agent
