saving day wise logs in Azure App Service for Django Application - django

Question

Below is the logging format I have for a DRF application in azure app service. I tried using Timed Rotating File handler but I was not able to save the logs with that option. Also, when ever the app service restarts, the previous logs are getting erased. Is there a way to maintain day wise logs in azure app service.

Is there a way to maintain day-wise logs in the azure app service.
Currently, it is not possible to save a log day-wise. By default, App Service the log will be saved in LogFiles\Application\. And we were not able to change the log file name also.
Application logging
File System - Save the logs into the filesystem. This setting will only stay enabled for 12 hours
Azure Blob Storage- You can also save the logs to Azure Blob Storage, even if you also save the logs to the file system(This feature is not available for Linux App service)
You can also define a level of verbosity for the application logging to catch. This allows you to filter logging data into Error, Warning, Information, or Verbose categories. All information that you log will be caught by the Verbose value. Refer Azure App Service Log files.
whenever the app service restarts, the previous logs are getting erased
You have to take a backup of your App so that we can get all information (Configuration, log files, App details) about App Service. Refer App Service Backup
