Azure Storage Usage via API

We are hoping to centralize our Azure API reporting and automation around the Nerdio API for consistency across solutions.  One of the things that we need to track is useage on Azure File share to know when it needs to be expanded.  While I totally understand that this data is available through MSFT Graph API, I was thinking there would be some attractive ways to normalize the data if Nerdio was doing the exposure of that data.  So I guess I'm asking if thigns like this could be added or some general roadmap info on where the API is heading.

That sounds like a great idea!

I'm curious why you wouldn't want to use AutoScale to expand/shrink the file share?
(It looks like you're already able to report on that with the API.

Are you thinking of reporting on all Azure Storage usage so you can see reporting beyond Azure Files (FSLogix) shares?

AutoScale is certainly something we want to look at but being able to track usage over time and visualize a potential runaway situation is valuable to us.  You are also correct that there is Azure Files usage outside of AVD for our clients.  While not the core intent of NMM, we use it as much as possible for server and networking management as well.  The unified, multitenant console with some guardrails in it is excellent for our engineers.  Like we have a unified GUI I'd love to unify our API calls under a single umbrella and make that pane of glass less of a pain :)
