+  (This feature was originally introduced in 1.2.0-beta.2)
+  ([#44511](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-net/pull/44511))
+
+* Added an experimental feature for logs emitted within an active tracing context to follow the Activity's sampling decision.
+  The feature can be enabled by setting `OTEL_DOTNET_AZURE_MONITOR_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_LOG_SAMPLING` environment variable to `true`.
+  (This feature was originally introduced in 1.2.0-beta.1)
