FAQPage Schema
How do I write a KQL query to find failed requests in Application Insights?

You can write a KQL query against your Application Insights logs to filter the requests table for failed entries. This helps you quickly identify and analyze application errors within a specific time window.

What is the best way to visualize Azure Monitor metrics in interactive dashboards?

Building interactive dashboards using Azure Workbooks is the best way to visualize Azure Monitor metrics. This provides a centralized view to track key application trends and analyze historical data.

Can I set up proactive issue detection alerts using Azure Monitor?

You can configure alerts via Azure Monitor to enable proactive issue detection. This ensures you receive immediate notifications for critical application issues, maintaining real-time observability.

How does log analytics work within the Azure ecosystem?

Log analytics works by leveraging KQL to query data within Azure Log Analytics and Application Insights. This enables historical data analysis and deep exploration of application telemetry.

Do I need Application Insights to monitor Azure applications?

You need Application Insights to monitor Azure applications as it provides the telemetry for log analytics. It integrates with Azure Monitor to enable alerts and visualizations.

What are the limitations of using Azure Workbooks for dashboard creation?

The main limitation of Azure Workbooks is that dashboards are restricted to querying data within the Azure Monitor ecosystem. They require KQL queries to fetch and visualize underlying log analytics data.
