Invoke-LogAnalyticsQuery only returns Tables JSON Array and not Results Array

I'm trying to use the new PowerShell based API (Invoke-LogAnalyticsQuery - see below) and the return payload only includes the Tables array and not the Results array as documented..     import-...

    Hi Brady,

     

    First, I must comment on your query. You should avoid queries that has 'search * | where Type =='. Instead the query below should just be: 'Heartbeat | take 10'. Search * is very inefficient way to use the system.

     

    Regarding the results array. I ran the same code but didn't managed to reproduce. I got both tables and results.

     

    Sorry

Meir, thanks for the pointer on query optimization.  I did figure out that I am getting the results.  It seems the shape of the JSON result you get back from Invoke-LogAnalyticsQuery doesn't match what is documented at:

https://dev.loganalytics.io/documentation/Tools/PowerShell-Cmdlets.

 

Thanks again.
