Usage Data for LM Logs
Last updated - 24 November, 2025
The LM Logs Enterprise Usage page provides detailed insights into log data consumption across your portal. You can view total log ingestion, track partition-level usage, identify top contributors, and visualize usage trends over time.
It enables you to filter usage data by subscription type to compare how much data is stored under each retention policy. The page displays month-to-date usage by default, giving you quick insight into current log ingestion activity. The Top Usage Analysis section lists the main contributors to your log data volume through predefined queries, helping you identify where the most data is coming from. You can also visualize overall usage patterns in the Cumulative Usage Graph, which supports both sparkline and bar chart views for easy comparison of usage across time or partitions.
