I'm trying to pin a query result to AppInsights dashboard but the data is getting grouped in the background.
When I run the query by itself, the graph is showing up as expected but when I click "Pin to dashboard" and view the same in dashboard, it only shows completely different data.
After pinned to dashboard
Before pinning to dashboard
Realized it was because in Azure app insights dashboard, pinned charts are limited to 30 days of data, regardless of what is specified in the query or the tile configuration
Update:
Op is correct. For application insights dashboard, it will only display the data within 31 days. The official link is here.
This may due to you're not selecting a proper start-time and end-time for the dashboard.
Try to select a proper start-time and end-time in the dashboard, a screenshot as below:
And if the issue still occurs, please share us your query code, and other dashboard settings.

How can I make a single tile 1x1 with a single metric in it?
Some of the default tiles that come with the dashboard show a single metric such has user count. How can I make my own metric that is shown?
Eg, number of exceptions?
Something like this?
How can I make my own metric that is shown?
You can create your own metric like Requests, Number of Exceptions, and others in Application Insights and pin them to Dashboard by following the steps below:
In the Application Insights resource deployed on Azure Portal--> under Monitoring --> Logs --> write your custom query in Kusto.
After running the above query, you will get the results and you can select the type of chart to use and pin that to the dashboard.

If i run query on AzureMetrics Table will both return same result? I mean HOW both options are different from each other?
Both use the same source. The difference is that using the "Metrics" blade you can create charts withouth having to write queries using Kusto and anyone with basic knowledge can quickly create charts.
When using the "Logs" blade you have to write a query using Kusto to get the desired results and format the chart manually but you have more control in what and how data is displayed.

The difference between logs and metrics is,
Metrics reveal a service or application's tendencies and proclivities,
while logs focus on specific events. The goal of logs is to save as
much information—mostly technical informations—as possible about a
single event. Log data can be used to investigate occurrences and
assist with root-cause analysis of problems or defects, as well as an
increasing number of other applications.

I have a self-developed dashboard on which I can see certain errors from my apps. I also have Application Insights.
Now I'd like to have links in the graphs of my custom dashboard to the search section of AI with the right filters to find the log events that correspond there.
The URLs in the Azure Portal are horrible though.
Is there any way to do that at all?
There are couple ways of pinning filtered views:
Pin Analytics query (as a chart). Click through will navigate to Analytics with this query opened
Apply needed filters on Failure / Performance blades and pin them. Click through will navigate to these blades and will preserve all configured filters
is it possible to show the Podstats of AKS on a shared Dashboard?
Why not, you would just need to pull that data from the OMS and create a custom dashboard from those queries.
if you click on the individual entry it will navigate to the OMS instance and show you the query needed to get that data.
Danny, Unfortunately there is no simple "click to pin this chart" functionality available currently in Container Insights (more modern name for that thing is Azure Monitor for Containers). We're looking to add it within a couple of months.
The chart does a query to Log Analytics store and goes into a bit of custom processing on the data received to render the chart. You can go to your cluster, "Metrics" on the menu on the left and chart the same thing there. You can pin from the metrics. Let me know if you need help with that I can provide more detailed instructions...
Within the Azure portal -> Application Insights -> Analytics I have written a query (that is valid) but currently returns no results. I want to pin the query to a dashboard but this does not appear to be possible because the pin icon does not appear unless results are returned.
Why is this and is there anyway to get around this? I want the query (graph) setup on dashboard now so when data starts appearing it will start showing something meaningful.
You can pin a mock query, e.g:
print 5
and then edit it on the dashboard:

Currently there is no way how to do it directly from a portal.
You can do it with resources.azure.com. Simply pin some working query and than update this query in resources.azure.com.
