ResourceType mismatch in Set-AzDiagnosticSetting

I want to update (not create) existing Diagnostic Settings entries for network related resources, they miss retention days variables and workspace assignment, but when I use this command:

$WorkspaceId = "..."
$ResourceId = "..."   
Set-AzDiagnosticSetting -resourceid $ResourceId -RetentionEnabled $True -RetentionInDays 31 -WorkspaceId $WorkspaceId

I get this error:

Set-AzDiagnosticSetting : Exception type: ErrorResponseException, Message: Null/Empty, Code: Null, Status code:BadRequest, Reason phrase: Bad Request

When I use alternative way of 

$get = Get-AzDiagnosticSetting -resourceid $ResourceId
Set-AzDiagnosticSetting -InputObject $get -MetricCategory AllMetrics -RetentionEnabled $True -RetentionInDays 31 -WorkspaceId $WorkspaceId

I get this error: Set-AzDiagnosticSetting : Parameter set cannot be resolved using the specified named parameters.

Can I actually update the entry with Set-AzDiagnosticSetting or only create one? Or I'm stuck with removing all diagnostic settings entires for network objects and assigning them properly again?

Solution

  • If you do not pass the fully qualified ID of the Workspace, you get the below error:

    And to use the alternative way, use it in this way, as mentioned in the documentation (Example 5: Using pipeline).

    Get-AzDiagnosticSetting -ResourceId "Resource01" | Set-AzDiagnosticSetting -Enabled $True -Category Category1,Category2
