Azure Advisor Resource Graph API is not returning savings amount for a Virtual Machine when it falls under "Right-size or shutdown underutilized virtual machines".
Is it expected? Please suggest.

Below url says that it will also show savings amount for right-sizing or shutdown, with currentSku and targetSku.

Here is the response I receive without savings amount in Resource graph api response

    This is really important to me! Right sizing is a big factor in recommendations, so something must be missing since we don't get the amount for this?
