Remove Devices from Log Analytics workspace

Hi, anyone knows how to remove devices that had previously been added to Desktop Analytics from our Log Analytics workspace?

I'm asking because we used the same log analytics for Update Compliance and we don't want to see the data for the Desktop Analytics devices (we no longer use this solution)

We have remove the client setting to set the Commercial key and deleted the Deployment plans, but they still appear/report to the log analytics workspace.

Thank you in advance and don't hesitate if you have any questions

How long have you waited?

I think it will take 28 days for the data to age out (that's based on step 4 of the flow at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/desktop-analytics/privacy.)

Did you check to see if the commercial ID is configured on the devices (in the registry)? Removing it from client settings doesn't mean it's removed from the clients.

So yes the commercial key is still configured. I've deleted it on one device and will wait 30days to see if it gets deleted

I've also excluded the main collection from the Global pilot configuration config, not that I think it'll do anything.

Thks for the idea
