reference

2. Run a specific query:

az monitor log-analytics query -w 7893d280-08de-4763-a795-b36f4432fddd --analytics-query "AppTraces | where TimeGenerated > ago(10m) "
az monitor log-analytics query -w 7893d280-08de-4763-a795-b36f4432fddd --analytics-query "AppTraces | where TimeGenerated > ago(10m)  | where OperationName == 'func_nasa_hdl_ingestion' "
az monitor log-analytics query -w 7893d280-08de-4763-a795-b36f4432fddd --analytics-query "AppTraces | where TimeGenerated > ago(10m)  | where OperationName != 'func_nasa_hdl_ingestion' "

Application Insights

1. Find the (Application Insights) app attached to the resource you are interested in.
2. Click the JSONview and find the AppID of the app (something like 14f0953-ad40-42c5-b29d-debc616b215fd)
3. Search for the metric you are interested in among the huge list provided by get-metadata

(.venv) λ az monitor app-insights metrics get-metadata --app 14215fd3-ad40-42c5-b29d-def095bc616b | grep "requests"
    "performanceCounters/requestsInQueue": {
      "displayName": "ASP.NET requests in application queue",
    "performanceCounters/requestsPerSecond": {
    "requests/count": {
      "displayName": "Server requests",
    "requests/duration": {
    "requests/failed": {
      "displayName": "Failed requests",

4. show the metric's data on a given time interval (very badly documented by Microsoft)

(.venv) λ az monitor app-insights metrics show --app 14215fd3-ad40-42c5-b29d-def095bc616b --metric requests/count --start-time 2022-09-12 --end-time 2022-09-13
{
  "value": {
    "end": "2022-09-12T22:00:00+00:00",
    "interval": null,
    "requests/count": {
      "sum": 280
    },
    "segments": null,
    "start": "2022-09-11T22:00:00+00:00"
  }
}

(.venv) λ az monitor app-insights metrics show --app 14215fd3-ad40-42c5-b29d-def095bc616b --metric requests/count --start-time 2022-09-12 01:00:00 --end-time 2022-09-12 02:00:00
{
  "value": {
    "end": "2022-09-12T00:00:00+00:00",
    "interval": null,
    "requests/count": {
      "sum": 12
    },
    "segments": null,
    "start": "2022-09-11T23:00:00+00:00"
  }
}
