I'm deploying a web app in azure using the container registry I created and an auto-generated webhook. And now I want to access the console logs of the webapp container, is this possible?
Using the Portal, locate the Monitoring section in the App Service menu. Select App Service Logs and enable application logging.
You can access the logs via FTP or by using the Advanced Tools.
To stream the logs, select Log Stream to stream them directly in the Portal or use the CLI in a terminal:
az webapp log tail --name <appname> --resource-group <resourcegroupname>
There's a complete MS Learn module covering this topic.

I created Web application in App Service using a custom container from Azure Container Registry, enabled File System logging for it, add Application Insights for this app service. Application write logs to this app insights. But how can I see those logs in Azure portal? I open "Logs" sub-menu in Application Insights and see here "Queries". What am I doing wrong?
Why Azure can't provide just full logs in the portal?
Application Insights -> Transaction search
Here you can filter data by TRACE type and it is your application logs
I have a webapp for which I have configured the App setting under configuration "AzureWebJobsDashboard" and "Azurewebjobstorage" which has the value for storage account and its access key.
As described in this article : https://www.marathonus.com/about/blog/introduction-to-azure-webjobs/
Once I set these setting and restart the app service, logs should appear in two storage containers as below
azure-webjobs-hosts
azure-jobs-host-output
However I see only azure-webjobs-hosts created and logging happening only sometimes. While I check for the webjob logs via Kudu site, I can see logs under the jobs folder, my job in txt files.
What am I doing wrong here?
I have followed the steps from the blog which you have provided and created one web job.
And Created one storage account and configured with the web job and published it into azure.
I can see created log files in storage account and kudu site.
You can restart your webjobs and check the storage account for the newly created logs.
I have read several docs and tutorials about Azure App Services.
What i want to do is to see my application log (errors, exceptions, etc.) in azure portal.
I have read i need to configure something in order to store my logs to a Storage account, Log analytics, or Event Hub.
But, this command line shows me the logs !
az webapp log tail --name myapp --resource-group mygroup
So there is no need to configure anything in order to collect log, if this command can do it...
How can i do the same thing in azure portal ?
And how can i see more than 10 lines with this tail ?
Thanks
I find using "Log Stream" very useful. It outputs all your logs in realtime to the portal.
You can enable logging on the app service by browsing to the app service logs section under the app service blade in the azure portal. Here is a link that shows how to do it: https://manojchoudhari.wordpress.com/2019/11/01/azure-app-service-and-diagnostics-logging/
Here is another article that shows how to enable diagnostic logging on the app service from the portal: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/troubleshoot-diagnostic-logs
In terms of the tailing command, the documentation doesn't have any params to do this so I doubt it you can increase the number of lines. However, you can output your logs with -o which you might already know.
When your web apps service is down you can get more details in "Diagnose and solve problems" in azure portal, you can get application logs, container issue, memory usage and other details.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/overview-diagnostics
If you want to debug your code deployed in app service inside azure portal then you can go to advanced tool and launch KUDU.

I have an api application hosted on azure App services. For the web server log (iis logs) I've turned on web server logging from Azure portal. Look at the screenshot below.
For storing web server logging
Server Logs are allowed to be stored on the Azure blob containers only. As per the configuration the logs are stored on blob container as expected. Now I want to use these logs to be displayed on Azure Log Analytics.
I've the following storage configurations on Log Analytics in Azure Web portal.
On Log Analytics explorer I can view logs from all other sources except the web server (iis logs). What I'm missing here?
Verified with App Services team that Log Analytics is only supported at the IaaS (VM) level, not at PaaS (App Service) level.
Hopefully we can get this on their roadmap soon - for now you have to manually ingest this data into an external log management tool (Splunk, Sumo Logic, Azure Data Explorer).
Update 12/02/2019
Azure App Service has announced a Public Preview for IIS App Log integration with Azure Log Analytics.
Expanding on the prior answer, under the Diagnostic settings (preview) pane you can now integrate multiple logs to Azure via Add diagnostics setting, this can store:
AppServiceAntivirusScanAuditLogs
AppServiceHTTPLogs
AppServiceConsoleLogs
AppServiceAppLogs
AppServiceFileAuditLogs
AppServiceAuditLogs
AppServiceIPSecAuditLogs
AppServicePlatformLogs
AllMetrics
You can send them to:
Log Analytics workspace
Archive to storage account
Stream to event hub
Send to partner solution
Additionally, Application Insights is migrating to be backed by Log Analytics so we are getting close to fully integrated platform for metrics and logs
We have an azure web app that we deploy with a publish profile and webdeploy. What I'd like to know is if there is any log about this deployment activity ? I read the logs but I can't find any trace of my deployments.
Note : we're not using git automated deployment
In the Azure Management Portal (manage.windowsazure.com), select Management Services and then the Operation Logs tab.
Or, in the Azure Preview Portal (portal.azure.com), select Browse All and then Audit Logs.
