Alert on Successful RDP connections

While playing with log Queries in Sentinel, I found several RDP connections to my test machines and would like to know if these attempts were successful or no.  I looked for messages such as "User Authentication succeeded" or event ID 1149 but couldn't find any. However in my sentinel logs I can see the following logs :

  • For anyone else who is looking for this, the solution is to filter by Event  in sentinel logs, after enabling Windows RDP logs under DATA => Windows Events Logs. 
    You can use the following query for test : 

    Event 
    |
    where RenderedDescription
    contains "A connection from the client computer with an IP address of"
    and RenderedDescription contains "failed because the user name or password is not correct. "

      What do you mean by "Data => Windows Event Logs", where is that setting?

      EDIT: found it: Azure Sentinel Workspaces / [workspace ] / Settings / Workspace Settings / Advanced Settings / Data
