I am reporting some custom events to Azure, within the custom event is a value being held under the customMeasurements object named 'totalTime'.
The event itself looks like this:
loading-time: {
customMeasurements : {
totalTime: 123
}
}
I'm trying to create a graph of the average total time of all the events reported to azure per hour. So I need to be able to collect and average the values within the events.
I can't seem to figure out how to access the customMeasurements values from within the Azure AppInsights Analytics. Here is some of the code that Azure provided.
union customEvents
| where timestamp between(datetime("2019-11-10T16:00:00.000Z")..datetime("2019-11-11T16:00:00.000Z"))
| where name == "loading-time"
| summarize Ocurrences=count() by bin(timestamp, 1h)
| order by timestamp asc
| render barchart
This code simply counts the number of reported events within the last 24 hours and displays them per hour.
I have tried to access the customMeasurements object held in the event by doing
summarize Occurrences=avg(customMeasurements["totalTime"])
But Azure doesn't like that, so I'm doing it wrong. How can I access the values I require? I can't seem to find any documentation either.
It can be useful to project the data from the customDimensions / customMeasurements property collecton into a new variable that you'll use for further aggregation. You'll normally need to cast the dimensions data to the expected type, using one of the todecimal, toint, tostring functions.
For example, I have some extra measurements on dependency telemetry, so I can do something like so
dependencies
| project ["ResponseCompletionTime"] = todecimal(customMeasurements.ResponseToCompletion), timestamp
| summarize avg(ResponseCompletionTime) by bin(timestamp, 1h)
Your query might look something like,
customEvents
| where timestamp between(datetime("2019-11-10T16:00:00.000Z")..datetime("2019-11-11T16:00:00.000Z"))
| where name == "loading-time"
| project ["TotalTime"] = toint(customMeasurements.totalTime), timestamp
| summarize avg(TotalTime) by bin(timestamp, 1h)
| render barchart

I have a chart in azure monitor (app insight to be exact) essentially I have 5 servers 2 of which are used by client B and 3 by client C. what I want to all server displayed but a drop down option so client B or c can be chosen
At the moment I have two charts which show the servers stood alone and another combined
With the following query
Perf
|extend iif(Computer =="X","B",iif(Computer =="Y","B","C")) | where CounterName == "% Processor Time" | where ObjectName == "Processor" | where Computer contains "SQL" | summarize avg(CounterValue) by bin(TimeGenerated, 5min), iif(Computer =="X","B",iif(Computer
=="Y","B","C")) // bin is used to set the time grain to 15 minutes | render timechart
A solution that may work for you
As suggested by Peter Bons and after testing in our local environment.
In your application insights create a workbook with a new parameter
Pick "dropdown" as the parameter type
Pick "query" as "get data from" option
Set your data source from where you are getting your data.
The below query is for getting the list of subscriptions you can use your own query for getting the list of servers
ResourceContainers | where type =~ "microsoft.resources/subscriptions"
// add any other filters you want here
| project id, name, group=tenantId
For further information you can go through the Microsoft Document.
I can run the 2 queries below to view the logs for a certain time, separately.
AppServiceConsoleLogs | where TimeGenerated >= datetime('2021-04-10 14:00')
AppServiceHTTPLogs | where TimeGenerated >= datetime('2021-04-10 14:00')
How do I combine these into a single query to view the logs together?
The union operator does the job to show all records from the specified tables.
I used the query below and no the problems you mentioned:
union requests, traces
| where timestamp > ago(1d)
The screenshot of the query result:
If you still have the problem, please share us the screenshot and more detailed info.
I would like to have query that would return something like for single vm. So query should be showing results of single vm and what kinda log type / solutions it has used and how much.
I don't know if this is even possible to do anything similar maybe? Tips?
With this query I'm able to list total usage for all vm's reporting to laws but I would like to have more details about a single vm
find where TimeGenerated > ago(30d) project _BilledSize, _IsBillable, Computer
| where _IsBillable == true
| extend computerName = tolower(tostring(split(Computer, '.')[0]))
| summarize BillableDataBytes = sum(_BilledSize) by computerName
| sort by BillableDataBytes nulls last
Mostly you would be able to accomplish it by querying standard columns or properties _BilledSize, Type, _IsBillable and Computer.
Below is the sample query for your reference:
union withsource=tt *
| where TimeGenerated between (ago(7d) .. now())
| where _IsBillable == true
| where isnotempty(Computer)
| where Computer == "MM-VM-RHEL-7"
| summarize BillableDataBytes = sum(_BilledSize) by Computer, _IsBillable, Type
| render piechart
Below is the screenshot for illustration:

I have a question about azure log analytics alerts, in that I don't quite understand how the time frame works within the context of setting up an alert based on an aggregated value.
I have the code below:
Event | where Source == "EventLog" and EventID == 6008 | project TimeGenerated, Computer | summarize AggregatedValue = count(TimeGenerated) by Computer, bin_at(TimeGenerated,24h, datetime(now()))
For time window : 24/03/2019, 09:46:29 - 25/03/2019, 09:46:29
In the above the alert configuration interface insights on adding the bin_at(TimeGenerated,24h, datetime(now())) so I add the function, passing the arguments for a 24h time period. If you are already adding this then what is the point of the time frame.
Basically the result I am looking for is capturing this event over a 24 hour period and alerting when the event count is over 2. I don't understand why a time window is also necessary on top of this because I just want to run the code every five minutes and alert if it detects more than two instances of this event.
Can anyone help with this?
AFAIK you may use the query something like shown below to accomplish your requirement of capturing the required event over a time period of 24 hour.
Event
| where Source == "EventLog" and EventID == 6008
| where TimeGenerated > ago(24h)
| summarize AggregatedValue= any(EventID) by Computer, bin(TimeGenerated, 1s)
The '1s' in this sample query is the time frame with which we are aggregating and getting the output from Log Analytics workspace repository. For more information, refer https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/kusto/query/summarizeoperator
And to create an alert, you may have to go to Azure portal -> YOURLOGANALYTICSWORKSPACE -> Monitoring tile -> Alerts -> Manager alert rules -> New alert rule -> Add condition -> Custom log search -> Paste any of the above queries under 'Search query' section -> Type '2' under 'Threshold value' parameter of 'Alert logic' section -> Click 'Done' -> Under 'Action Groups' section, select existing action group or create a new one as explained in the below mentioned article -> Update 'Alert Details' -> Click on 'Create alert rule'.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/action-groups
Hope this helps!! Cheers!! :)
To answer your question in the comments part, yes the alert insists on adding the bin function and that's the reason I have provided relevant query along with bin function by having '1s' and tried to explain about it in my previous answer.
If you put '1s' in bin function then you would fetch output from Log Analytics by aggregating value of any EventID in the timespan of 1second. So output would look something like shown below where aaaaaaa is considered as a VM name, x is considered as a particular time.
If you put '24h' instead of '1s' in bin function then you would fetch output from Log Analytics by aggregating value of any EventID in the timespan of 24hours. So output would look something like shown below where aaaaaaa is considered as a VM name, x is considered as a particular time.
So in this case, we should not be using '24h' in bin function along with 'any' aggregation because if we use it then we would see only one occurrence of output in 24hours of timespan and that doesn't help you to find out event occurrence count using the above provided query having 'any' for aggregation. Instead you may use 'count' aggregation instead of 'any' if you want to have '24h' in bin function. Then this query would look something like shown below.
Event
| where Source == "EventLog" and EventID == 6008
| where TimeGenerated > ago(24h)
| summarize AggregatedValue= count(EventID) by Computer, bin(TimeGenerated, 24h)
The output of this query would look something like shown below where aaaaaaa is considered as a VM name, x is considered as a particular time, y and z are considered as some numbers.
One other note is, all the above mentioned queries and outputs are in the context of setting up an alert based on an aggregated value i.e., setting up an alert when opting 'metric measurement' under alert logic based on section. In other words, aggregatedvalue column is expected in alert query when you opt 'metric measurement' under alert logic based on section. But when you say 'you get a count of the events' that means If i am not wrong, may be you are opting 'number of results' under alert logic based on section, which would not required any aggregation column in the query.
Hope this clarifies!! Cheers!!
I have data in azure Insights saved in custom events formats.
Now I need to create a dashboard page in my website that will pull data from insights and will show graphs on that data.
Questions is that how I can filter data from the customEvents based on data saved there. like based on custom events or custom data.
Provide me any resource from where I can see that how $filer, $search,$query works?
I am here https://dev.applicationinsights.io/quickstart but not looks like enough.
I tried to add filter like
startswith(customEvent/name, 'BotMessageReceived')
in https://dev.applicationinsights.io/apiexplorer/events
but it not working. is says "Something went wrong while running the query",
I have customEvents which name start with BotMessageReceived
Thanks
Dalvir
update:
There is no like operator, if you wanna use timestamp as a filter, you should use one of the three methods below:
customEvents
| where timestamp >= datetime('2018-11-23T00:00:00.000') and timestamp <=
datetime('2018-11-23T23:59:00.000')
customEvents
| where tostring(timestamp) contains "2018-12-11"
customEvents
| where timestamp between(datetime('2018-11-23T00:00:00.000') ..
datetime('2018-11-23T23:59:00.000') )
Please use this:
customEvents
| where name startswith "BotMessageReceived"
And if you use the api you metioned above, you can use:
https://api.applicationinsights.io/v1/apps/Your_application_id/query?
query=customEvents | where name startswith "BotMessageReceived"
It works at my side.
