Unsupported AppService log type

Question

I am trying to deploy an App Service (Microsoft.Web/sites; apiVersion 2018-02-01) that was previously deploying via ARM template without issue - using diagnosticSettings provider with apiVersion 2017-05-01-preview

In the template I am specifying various log types - including File Audit Logs

{  
                        "category": "AppServiceFileAuditLogs",  
                        "enabled": true,  
                        "retentionPolicy": {  
                            "enabled": false,  
                            "days": "[parameters('logRetentionDays')]"  
                        }  
},  

But this deployment is now failing with the error:
[error]BadRequest: Category 'AppServiceFileAuditLogs' is not supported.

However, the docs for the resource (below) suggests that this is still a supported log type. Any help with this would be really appreciated.

Hi @akdron ,

AppServiceFileAuditLogs are only supported on App Service SKUs that are Premium and higher. This is doc'd under the Description column. Your template should work assuming [variables('aspName')] is set to such a plan.
