Custom data in log analytics workspace
I have uploaded some data to custom table in log analytics workspace through CSV file, I can see table name appeared in logs query with default fields however I dont see any data there. Am I doing anything wrong here?
"tablename | summarize count()" gives me 0 results.

Is this from a Watchlist or a custom log (a file on a server with the Agent)? In either case it maybe a timing issue, especially as you have the table and columns. Data should be there in 2-5mins or so, maybe longer in some cases- pateriaakCopper Contributorits a custom log uploaded via CSV file. I have uploaded this data around 4 hours ago. Initially I thought it may take some time but I am still see there is no data in custom table in my log analytic workspace.

So that's above the expected 1hr https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/data-sources-custom-logs#step-5-validate-that-the-custom-logs-are-being-collected are you getting Heartbeat events from the machine that has the custom log?
Also depending on your use case, Watchlists maybe an alternative for .csv files.
