When this will happen
- We will stop onboarding Log Analytics workspaces to store the AIP audit logs on March 28th.

Beginning on September 30, we will disable the Configure Analytics (Preview) page for all customers. When disabled, all customer integrations and reports that are using Log Analytics workspaces data, populated with AIP audit logs via mentioned pipeline, will stop acquiring new data.
