Kusto database creation datetime


We need to cleanup Kusto databases in a cluster that we have created and are not getting used thus have 0 size. I'm planning to use powershell script for it and can perform it using combination of Get-AzKustoDatabase command and filtering out the databases with size 0 and using Remove-AzKustoDatabase command

However, I need to know if the database was not created recently (say 10 days back) before removing it. Is there any way we can identify kusto database creation date?


Solution

  • If the database was created during the last 365 days, you can find an entry for its creation on the Journal: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-explorer/kusto/management/journal
