    Hi @HASSAN BIN NASIR DAR ,

    Azure Activity Logs:

    The Azure Monitor Activity Log is a platform log that provides insight into subscription-level events. The Activity Log includes information like when a resource is modified or a virtual machine is started.

    Source: Send Azure Monitor Activity log data

    Azure Resource Logs:

    Azure resource logs are platform logs that provide insight into operations that are performed in an Azure resource. The content of resource logs is different for each resource type.

    Source: Send Azure resource logs to Log Analytics workspaces, Event Hubs, or Azure Storage
