NSG flow logs are stored in a storage account in block blobs. Block blobs are made up of smaller blocks. Each log is a separate block blob that is generated every hour. New logs are generated every hour, the logs are updated with new entries every few minutes with the latest data.

Actions for Microsoft Azure NSG Flow Logs

Get Logs

Fetch Flow log tuples of Azure NSG Flow. Blocks are generated per minute. So query on larger time range will carry more number of requests(one request per minute of time range). As an example one hour range will hit Azure servers 60 times to fetch all data which are divided into 60 files (and would be quite slow)

Input Field

Choose a connection that you have previously created and then fill in the necessary information in the following input fields to complete the connection.

Output

An Array of JSON in individual rows with each containing the following items:

• has_error: True/False
• error: message/null
• result: flow log tuple

{
   "error":null,
   "has_error":false,
   "result":"1620057588,10.0.0.4,20.150.87.132,48486,443,T,O,A,E,0,0,0,0"
}
