Instrument App Insights telemetry
Add Azure Application Insights observability so the web platform emits useful health, error, and usage telemetry with a clear deployment path.
When to Use This Skill
Use this when the web app needs stronger production telemetry, release visibility, or incident triage support in Azure-hosted environments.
Workflow Overview
- Confirm the hosting model, runtime, and deployment path before choosing instrumentation.
- Prefer the least disruptive Azure instrumentation path that fits the hosting model.
- Add application telemetry in code or infrastructure with clear configuration boundaries.
- Verify the resulting telemetry covers health, failures, and the key operator journeys that matter during support incidents.
Examples
- Add App Insights telemetry to the Focus web app.
- Plan Azure observability for a production ASP.NET Core deployment.
- Improve triage data for web incidents and failed user flows.
