There is other export option with logic app to export the data. You can query data from a Log Analytics workspace in Azure Monitor and send it to Azure Storage with the help of logic app.

Check this Microsoft Documentation to understand more about fetching data from Log Analytics workspace to Azure storage using Logic App

This procedure uses the Azure Monitor Logs connector, which lets you run a log query from a logic app and use its output in other actions in the workflow. The Azure Blob Storage connector is used in this procedure to send the query output to storage.
