Correct answer: Azure Activity Log.
Why this is the answer
Azure Activity Log records control plane events, such as resource creation, updates, and deletions, providing insights into actions performed on resources. It helps track who performed what action, when, and from where. Azure Monitor Metrics collects numerical data from resources, like CPU usage or network in/out, but doesn't track configuration changes. Azure Resource Graph allows you to explore and query your Azure resources at scale across subscriptions, but it's not a logging tool for changes. Azure Application Insights is an Application Performance Management (APM) service for monitoring live web applications, focusing on performance and usage, not infrastructure changes.
