+## Prerequisites
+
+To integrate Log Analytics and Excel, you need:
+
+- [Excel](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/excel) local client application.
+- A Log Analytics workspace that has some data. If needed, [create a diagnostic setting to send data to a Log Analytics workspace](../essentials/diagnostic-settings.md#create-diagnostic-settings).
+
+[!INCLUDE [log-analytics-query-permissions](../../../includes/log-analytics-query-permissions.md)]
+
 ## Create your M query in Log Analytics 
 
 1. **Create and run your query** in Log analytics as you normally would. Don’t worry if you hit the number of records limitation in the user interface.  We recommend you use relative dates - like the ‘ago’ function or the UI time picker - so Excel refreshes the right set of data.
