Azure Defender and specific App Services

I'm reading the documentation for Azure Defender (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/security-center/azure-defender) and this suggests that the only way to enable Azure Defender for App Service is through enabling for the subscription which would enable for all App Services which make use of the following App Service Plans; Basic, Standard, Premium, Isolated, or Linux.

Azure Defender for SQL and Azure Defender for Storage seem to be more granular and allow enabling on specific resources. Is there any way to only enable for specific App Services (or specific App Service Plans and the derived App Services)?

Microsoft Defender for Cloud

    @Rob Nicholls
    Thank you for your post!

    Azure Defender doesn't support enabling this feature for specific App Services, as of right now. You can only enable Azure Defender on your subscription or you can optionally enable this only for the App Service plan, as described in Pricing of Azure Security Center.
