Connection error occurs when querying logs in Log Analytics Workspace using the latest Chrome

Hello Azure Support Team, thank you as always for your great support.

When accessing the Log Analytics Workspace in Chrome and running a log query, a connection error popup appears, and the logs cannot be retrieved.

Both network connectivity and permissions are completely normal, and the same operation works fine in other browsers such as Safari.

I suspect that this issue may be related to the new Local Network Access Restrictions feature introduced in Chrome version 142, which seems to block the request.

It appears that the “Allow local access” setting may need to be applied within the iFrame code used by Log Analytics Workspace to perform queries.

Could you please confirm whether this issue is known on the Azure side or if there are any ongoing fixes or workarounds for this behavior?

    I’ve seen this recently, and it’s caused by the new local network access restrictions introduced in Chrome 142.

    Log Analytics queries run inside an iframe, and Chrome is now blocking part of that request, which is why the popup appears even though everything works in other browsers.

    There’s nothing wrong with your workspace or permissions. It’s a browser issue.

    Right now the only reliable workaround is to use Edge, Firefox, or Safari until Microsoft updates the Log Analytics iframe to comply with Chrome’s new behavior. Chrome Incognito won’t help because the restriction is built into the browser, not extensions.

    This is already a known issue, and Microsoft is working on a fix.

    The connection error you are experiencing when querying logs in the Log Analytics Workspace using the latest version of Chrome could be related to the browser's handling of API requests, particularly if there are restrictions in place due to recent updates. While the context does not specifically mention the Local Network Access Restrictions feature or any known issues with Chrome version 142, it does highlight that connectivity issues can arise from browser settings or extensions.

    To troubleshoot, consider the following steps:

    1. Open an InPrivate window in Chrome to see if the issue persists. This can help determine if browser extensions are causing the problem.
    2. Disable any active browser extensions that might interfere with the requests.
    3. Test the functionality in other browsers, as you have already done with Safari, to confirm that the issue is isolated to Chrome.
    4. Investigate any DNS or network-related issues that might affect the API calls from the client machine.
    5. If the problem continues, consider capturing a browser trace to provide more detailed information for troubleshooting.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be beneficial to report the incident to Microsoft Support for further assistance.

    In case you are still stuck, applying this registry key should fix it for Edge, you can also disable the flag
