Read the first 6 Azure Monitoring & Diagnostics flashcards as text

  1. Which Application Insights telemetry type captures unhandled exceptions and manually logged errors?

    Answer: Exception telemetry

    Exception telemetry in Application Insights captures unhandled exceptions and exceptions explicitly tracked with TrackException(), including stack traces.

  2. How do you create a custom metric in Application Insights from application code?

    Answer: Use the TelemetryClient.TrackMetric() or GetMetric() API in the SDK

    The TelemetryClient.TrackMetric() and GetMetric() APIs allow applications to emit custom numeric metrics to Application Insights from within the application code.

  3. What is the purpose of Azure Monitor Action Groups?

    Answer: Defining a set of notification and remediation actions triggered by alert rules

    Action Groups define who to notify (email, SMS, webhook) and what to do (Logic App, Azure Function, runbook) when an Azure Monitor alert fires.

  4. What is an Application Insights Availability Test used for?

    Answer: Pinging an external URL at regular intervals from multiple Azure regions to detect outages

    Availability tests periodically send HTTP requests to your application from multiple Azure regions and alert you if the endpoint is unreachable or too slow.

  5. Which KQL operator is used to filter rows in a Log Analytics query?

    Answer: where

    The `where` operator in KQL filters rows in a table based on a boolean condition, equivalent to SQL's WHERE clause.

  6. How do diagnostic settings in Azure help with monitoring?

    Answer: They route Azure resource platform logs and metrics to Log Analytics, Storage, or Event Hubs

    Diagnostic settings on Azure resources configure where to send platform logs (activity, resource, audit) and metrics — to Log Analytics, Storage accounts, or Event Hubs.
