03 On the Storage accounts page, select the subscription that you want to examine from the Subscription filter box.

04 Click on the name (link) of the Azure Storage account that you want to examine.

05 In the blade navigation panel, under Monitoring (classic), choose Diagnostic settings (classic) to access the Diagnostics feature settings.

06 On the Diagnostic settings (classic) page, make sure that the Status is set to On. If the Status setting is set to Off, the diagnostics are disabled, therefore the logging configuration is not compliant and the Audit process ends here. If the Status is set to On, select the Table properties tab check the Logging configuration section (regardless of its version). If Read, Write, and Delete are not selected, the storage logging is not enabled for the Azure Storage Table service within the selected storage account settings.

01 Run storage account list command (Windows/macOS/Linux) with custom query filters to describe the identifier of each storage account available in the current Azure subscription:

az storage account list
  --query '[*].name'

02 The command output should return the requested storage account names:

[
  "abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234",
  "abcdabcdabcd123412341234"
]

03 Run storage logging show command (Windows/macOS/Linux) using the name of the storage account that you want to examine as the identifier parameter and custom query filters to describe the table logging settings available for the selected storage account:

az storage logging show
  --services t
  --account-name abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234

04 The command output should return the requested configuration information:

{
  "table": {
    "write": false,
    "read": false,
    "delete": false,
    "retentionPolicy": {
      "days": null,
      "enabled": false
    },
    "version": "1.0"
  }
