I have an Azure CDN setup to an Origin WebApp, and I've edited my custom domain's DNS records so that the root site now points to the Azure CDN instead of the WebApp.
Now I just want to double check that everything is being routed correctly, and that the CDN is functioning properly, but I can't see any usage data for the Azure CDN.
I've found some older questions that tell to look on the CDN Profile and then to click on "Manage", however this "Manage" button/option no longer exists. Is there any way to see usage data for an Azure CDN? I would also like to have an idea of how much I'll be billed.
Here's the portal screen that I have (lacking the "Manage" option on the CDN Profile)
The "Manage" button/option exists on Azure CDN from Verizon provider, whereas your pricing tier is standard Microsoft. See details here.
For the billing structure for content hosted by Azure CDN, It is charged by a billing region, any HTTP(S) request that terminates at the CDN and some usage charges on the services used as the origin for your objects. You will get more details from understanding Azure CDN billing and CDN pricing and Pricing calculator.

I need to add pages (kind of static web pages) in Azure APIM Developer Portal to display documentation. Is there any tutorial to explain how to achieve it?
Is there a way I can read the text content from REST API calls and populate the pages in Dev portal?
I believe the issue is more or less similar to this where you are trying to update documentation properly at Azure Api Managment developer portal.
In that case, as mentioned in the thread, you can try with swagger but in APIM portal it might not work immediately. Microsoft product team has confirmed that they working on improvig support for OpenAPIv3. The ETA is about end of September.
However, you may also check the self-hosted gateway feature
The self-hosted gateway feature expands API Management support for hybrid and multi-cloud environments and enables organizations to efficiently and securely manage APIs hosted on-premises and across clouds from a single API Management service in Azure.

I have a web app hosted in Azure, i need to allow the website to be browseable only from specific countries. Is there any config settings that can be done to restrict the countries in azure.
Azure websites don't have an geo filtering built in, however the Azure CDN provider does have geo filtering so that might be something to look at. Still an extra cost, but not as bad as a WAF.
You can leverage Geolocation feature which is part of one of the new preview services called Azure Maps. You can find more details about the same at Azure Maps

Summary
Where can I create a CDN endpoint in the Windows Azure portal?
Details / Background
I found this great video from Scott Hanselman on getting set up with an Azure CDN (thanks, Scott!)
The video walks through creating a CDN endpoint for the storage. Unfortunately, at the time, CDNs were managed in the old portal (now defunct).
I assumed that Azure would have moved this functionality to the new portal, so I found this Microsoft article on how to create a CDN endpoint. It reads:
To create a new CDN endpoint for your storage account:
In the Windows Azure Management Portal, in the navigation pane, click CDN.
On the ribbon, click New. In the New dialog, select App Services, then CDN, then Quick Create.
So I'm searching for CDN in the left-hand pane but don't see it anywhere. Am I crazy?
A screenshot of the nav pane I see is below:
For good measure, I went to the New --> App Services and attempted to find CDN, but it doesn't appear to be there either:
What gives? Is there any availability for this in the new portal?
Ooops, I see I missed a related SO question: How to create CDN in Windows Azure
Looks like the functionality is not available for all users, though it is documented as if it is. Bummer.
I'll move to close this question as related.
I'm trying to deliver a file via CDN.I created a Blob and uploaded the file to it.
Now i want to use a CDN to deliver it as per Azure docs here http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/manage/services/other/cdn/
In the Windows Azure Management Portal, in the navigation pane, click
CDN.
On the ribbon, click New. In the New dialog, select App Services, then
CDN, then Quick Create.
The problem is in my account there is nothing called App Services
How am i supposed to create the CDN?
Azure CDN is available as of April 3, 2014, as announced at the //build conference (pricing is available here).
You'll find CDN on the left-side along with the other services:
When you choose to add the endpoint, you can select from your storage accounts (or cloud services):
You'll then see your CDN endpoint, ready for use:
If you are new to Azure (you created your account recently) you will not see CDN in the portal. Currently CDN is only enabled for customers who have used it before (~2-3 years). But I do believe we will very soon see CDN enabled for all customers.
And Application Services is a group which you will see when you click the big plus (+) sign at the bottom left of management portal.
Astaykov is correct, access to CDN is being limited. It might be worth contacting MS support by submitting a ticket through the management portal to see whether CDN could be added to your subscription.
I'm trying to create an Azure CDN and cannot find the option to do in the new Azure portal.
According to other sources, there is supposed to be a CDN option under the New -> App Services menu like so:
But when I log into the portal, this CDN option is missing. This is what I see:
Does this have anything to do with my subscription? I'm using a "3-month Free Trial".
Updating to include a screen shot of my left pane options. No CDN!
I finally have the answer why the CDN menu option doesn't appear.
The following from Windows Azure Technical support:
"We’re in the process of building out our next generation Windows Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) architecture, and during this time we are no longer accepting new CDN customers.
With the CDN functionality having recently transitioned to the new Azure management portal, we have enabled it automatically only for customers who were using CDN in the old management portal, so they can continue to manage their CDN configurations. For everyone else, the CDN feature is not enabled in the new portal.
We highly encourage you to wait until we’re ready building our next generation Azure CDN service."
Should be on the left menu - but then this is an enterprise account: and just confirmed there is no CDN option on my personal account - hmmmm...
Good morning
As far as I know their is no 'Enterprise' account, I have multiple logins ranging from MSDN, partners etc and all have the same features. The only difference is when you register for preview services.
On the left hand side in the new portal (light blue bar ) you should see the following items -
All Items
Web Sites
Virtual Machines
Mobile Servces
Cloud Services
SQL Databases
Storage
HDInsight
Media Services
Service Bus
Cache
Recover Services
SQL Reporting
CDN *************
Networks
Traffic Manager
Management Services
Active Directory
Add-Ons
Do you see the same, can you see CDN highlighted above
