I get the following errors when try to collect events using the log analytics add on against azure. the query I use in the input is:
Log Analytics Query
AzureActivity | search *
and the query works if I run it in the workspace. any ideas?

No, but literally 20 min after I posted this I found the log I should have been looking at and it says this:
2019-07-18 18:04:53,241 ERROR pid=61422 tid=MainThread file=base_modinput.py:log_error:307 | OMSInputName="AzureActivityLogs" status="403" step="Post Query" response="{"error":{"message":"The provided credentials have insufficient access to perform the requested operation","code":"InsufficientAccessError"}}"
so it's pretty obvious it's a perms issue at this point. I'm waiting to hear back from the Azure group to fix it.
