If you're referring to the Activity Log, you can export it to a Log Analytics workspace, where it can be retained for up to 2 years.
To do this, navigate to the Monitor service in the Azure portal and select Export Activity Logs. On the next screen, choose the specific logs you want to export and the destination. Configure your preferences and save the settings.
For Log Analytics, you can extend the default retention period from 30 days to a maximum of 730 days for the entire workspace or adjust retention settings at the individual table level. Refer to the screenshots below for more details.
Keep in mind that storing this data in Log Analytics will incur costs based on the volume of data ingested daily.
