Configure logging to blob storage via the Azure CLI

I'm writing an Azure CLI bash script to create an Azure Web App, and I've got to the point where I need to configure logging. I know I can configure the logging, to an extent, with...

az webapp log config --name $webAppName
                     --resource-group $resourceGroupName
                     --level Verbose
                     --application-logging true
                     --detailed-error-messages true
                     --web-server-logging filesystem

As far as I can tell this should allow me to log whatever is sent through System.Debug.Trace....

This is where I get confused: My understanding is that these logs will be written to blob storage, and the documentation does explain how to enable this, but it doesn't explain how to enable this - or the retention policy - via the Azure CLI. Nor can I find any examples of how to do this except via the Azure portal.

So is my understanding as far as gathering the logging messages into a blob? And if so, how does one configure this via the Azure CLI?

The cli az webapp log config currently does not support logging to blob storage, so you cannot configure it by using this cli command.

There is a github issue webapp: support storage for logging config for tracking this question, and it also provides a workaround.

Hope it helps.
