Can I store raw logs in a different subscription? #51282

Is the answer to this question still valid? I see that we can now successfully configure NSG flow logs for a storage account in another subscription via the API. This definitely helps us to centralize logging.

@calewilliams , Thanks for your feedback. Previously NSG Flow Logs could only be sent to storage accounts located in the same region and subscription as the NSG. Now, you can configure NSG Flow Logs to be sent to a storage account located in a different subscription, provided you have the appropriate privileges, and that the storage account is located in the same region as the NSG. The NSG and the destination storage account must also share the same Azure Active Directory Tenant.

We will now make the necessary changes to the FAQ doc.
