Hi,
Is it possible or is there any plan to support application insights events as the source for the data activator area?
or using it as a KDL database?
I would like to monitor application insights activity from Fabric.
Thanks.
Hello @Jerome22 ,
As you are probably aware, you can make a KQL database in Fabric. I have checked with the Fabric KQL team, who advise me that it will soon be possible to use a Fabric KQL database as the store for App Insights data. Additionally, we do intend in future to allow you to create Data Activator alerts from Fabric KQL databases. So I anticipate that in due course you will be able to have App Instights -> Fabric KQL -> Data Activator alerts.
Standard disclaimer that roadmaps are subject to change! But that's our current thinking. Hope that helps.
Regards
James
This is a great feature request, thank you! We don't plan to add a native connection from Data Activator to App Insights at the moment. Eventstream will be the way to ingest data from other applications into Fabric (including Data Activator). You could do this today by following this: Export using Stream Analytics from Azure Application Insights - Azure Stream Analytics | Microsoft L... and pushing from ASA's EventHub into an Eventstream. It's clunky right now but we're working on making it much easier in Fabric!
Thanks
Will
Thank you for the link. I appreciate you.
thanks for the feedback.
I'll wait to see this in action 🙂
thanks
but the continuous export is deprecated 😞
is there other solutions available? (except doing incremental load)
