Explanation

Azure Virtual Desktop Insights is built on Azure Monitor Workbooks, which reads data from a Log Analytics workspace. When you configure diagnostic settings on the AVD host pool, you must route logs and metrics to a Log Analytics workspace so that the Insights workbook can query and visualize the data. An Event Hub is used for streaming telemetry to third-party SIEM tools (e.g., Splunk) and is not queried by Monitor workbooks. A Storage Account is used for archiving/auditing logs long-term but cannot serve as a live data source for Azure Monitor Workbooks. Therefore, Log Analytics workspace is the required destination.
