Description
This policy setting controls whether additional diagnostic logs are collected when more information is needed to troubleshoot a problem on the device. Diagnostic logs are only sent when the device has been configured to send optional diagnostic data.
By enabling this policy setting, diagnostic logs will not be collected.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, we may occasionally collect diagnostic logs if the device has been configured to send optional diagnostic data.
