Unable to query logs in Advanced Hunting

Hi Community,

 

Recently, I turned off the ingestion of some of the Device* tables to Sentinel via Microsoft XDR Data connector. Ever since the ingestion is stopped in Sentinel, the TimeGenerated or Timestamp column usage in KQL is not working in Microsoft XDR Advanced Hunting at all.

 

Example KQL in Advanced Hunting below:

DeviceImageLoadEvents

| where Timestamp >= ago(1h)

| limit 100

The above yields no results in AdvancedHunting pane. However, if you use ingestion_time() you see the results which also gives TimeGenerated/Timestamp but cannot filter on that in the KQL.

It seems like a bug to me.

 

Does anyone face the same issue or can someone help?

Thanks

  • hi akshayp199503​ check one of these

     

    To safely query recent events when Timestamp is unreliable:

    DeviceImageLoadEvents

    | where ingestion_time() >= ago(1h)

    | project Timestamp, ingestion_time(), FileName, DeviceName

    | limit 100

    You can also add a null check if Timestamp is inconsistently populated:

    DeviceImageLoadEvents

    | where isnotempty(Timestamp) and Timestamp >= ago(1h)

    | limit 100
