Trying to use #Azure #LogAnalytics to find DDL changes in my #AzureSQL DBs. I show that looking for action_name_s of CREATE used to work (like a year+ ago), but now everything is just RPC COMPLETED or BATCH COMPLETED. Anybody know how to capture DDL changes short of looking for ALTER/CREATE in the statement_s itself? Thanks.

Azure OpenAI offers built-in logging and monitoring capabilities.

However, it's important to note that the default cognitive service logging doesn't capture or store details such as prompts, tokens, and models used as inputs and outputs of the service.

These metrics are particularly crucial for compliance and ensuring the service functions as intended. 📌

The following solution provides comprehensive logging and monitoring, as well as enhanced security for enterprise deployments of the Azure OpenAI Service API.
