Needs link to timespan definition

[cszabo2]

The az monitor log-analitics query documentation makes reference to specifying a timespan. It even offers an example of a specifying one, but the timespan specification is not obvious at all. A link to a reference documentation of the format of the timespan string would be very useful here.

Hi @AllyW, please help update the help message of timespan, when fixing issues of az monitor log-analytics query command.

Hi ! This issue is now more than 3 years old.

@yonzhan and @kairu-ms, when can we expect the documentation to link to the resources needed to understand the ISO format (or even know in the first place that this is the selected format) ?

The error handling on this input is also unreliable: when I input a wrong code that starts with P, it defaults to sending me an empty list. When it does not start with P, it sends me everything (which is marked as the default). Is this field validated in the CLI or just sent to the online API to have it handle it however it wants ?
