+The reporting solution provided by Azure Backup leverages Log Analytics (LA). For the data of any given vault to be sent to LA, a [diagnostics setting](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/backup/backup-azure-diagnostic-events) needs to be created for that vault.
 
 Often, adding a diagnostics setting manually per vault can be a cumbersome task. In addition, any new vault created also needs to have diagnostics settings enabled in order to be able to view reports for this vault. 
 
 To simplify the creation of diagnostics settings at scale (with LA as the destination), Azure Backup provides a built-in [Azure Policy](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/governance/policy/). This policy adds an LA diagnostics setting to all vaults in a given subscription or resource group. The following sections provide instructions on how to use this policy.
