OR
I want to create 1 dashboard for resources WebApp, Azure Function, Storage say of name containing "XYZ"
requests table does not contain resourceid column. Which other Table i should use to get resource type and resource id, name

Answer 1

I had like the same question while logging into a common app insights resource.
From what I saw, there was no common property across all the different logging applications, I could have been using to determine the telemetry-source.
What I ended up with was to add a custom property to all telemetry using a telemetry initializer (which can be added during the startup e.g. within Azure Functions, as well as AppService). For the Storage, I don't know whether this can be also done.
// C# sample for the initializer
public class ComponentNameTelemetryInitializer : ITelemetryInitializer
{
private readonly string _ComponentName;
public ComponentNameTelemetryInitializer(string assemblyName)
{
_ComponentName = assemblyName;
}
public void Initialize(ITelemetry telemetry)
{
if (telemetry is ISupportProperties propTelemetry)
{
propTelemetry.Properties["ComponentName"] = _ComponentName;
}
}
}
That way I can just filter the log for the custom dimension ComponentName and I get all entries from a specific application.
