Explore Azure Application Insights integration with Microsoft Power Platform for efficient monitoring, diagnostics, troubleshooting and streamlined analytics.

In this tech talk series, you will learn how Azure Application Insights integrates with the Power Platform and its various offerings. Azure Application Insights, a feature of Azure Monitor, is widely used for monitoring and diagnostics in the enterprise landscape. The data collected from a specific tenant or environment is pushed to your Application Insights environment, where it is stored in Azure Monitor logs and visualized in Performance and Failures panels.

This data can be used by support, developer, and admin personas to triage and resolve issues. Telemetry and table populate in Application Insights include Unified Interface page loads, outbound network requests, Dataverse API incoming calls, plug-in executions and more.

  • Application Insights' features include a dashboard for an overview of your org, proactive monitoring through Smart Detection, alerts for important scenarios, visualization of common navigation patterns, and custom queries for troubleshooting.
  • The Overview panel in Application Insights provides a summary of the key diagnostic metrics and is a gateway to other features of the portal.
  • The Performance panel provides data views for Server and Browser, helping to identify operations with long durations that may signify potential problems, and provides details of the most frequently called APIs, latency and dependencies.
  • The Failures panel shows the count of failed requests and number of affected users for each operation, offering insights to diagnose issues.
  • Querying data in Application Insights allows you to track all activities in a single user session and monitor all operations in a single interaction.
