Azure Logic Apps Skill
Manage and analyze Azure Logic Apps using az logic workflow and az rest commands.
Discovery-First Rule
ALWAYS discover before acting. Never assume workflow names, resource groups, or trigger names.
az logic workflow list --output json \
--query "[].{name:name, rg:resourceGroup, state:state, sku:sku.name, version:version, createdTime:createdTime, changedTime:changedTime}"
Parallel Execution Requirement
ALL independent operations MUST run in parallel using background jobs (&) and wait.
for wf in $(echo "$workflows" | jq -c '.[]'); do
{
name=$(echo "$wf" | jq -r '.name')
rg=$(echo "$wf" | jq -r '.rg')
az logic workflow show --name "$name" --resource-group "$rg" --output json
} &
done
wait
Helper Functions
get_run_history() {
local name="$1" rg="$2" top="${3:-25}"
az rest --method GET \
--url "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/$rg/providers/Microsoft.Logic/workflows/$name/runs?api-version=2016-06-01&\$top=$top" \
--output json --query "value[].{name:name, status:properties.status, startTime:properties.startTime, endTime:properties.endTime, trigger:properties.trigger.name, error:properties.error}"
}
get_trigger_history() {
local name="$1" rg="$2" trigger="$3" top="${4:-25}"
az rest --method GET \
--url "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/$rg/providers/Microsoft.Logic/workflows/$name/triggers/$trigger/histories?api-version=2016-06-01&\$top=$top" \
--output json
}
get_workflow_definition() {
local name="$1" rg="$2"
az logic workflow show --name "$name" --resource-group "$rg" --output json \
--query "{triggers:definition.triggers, actions:definition.actions | keys(@), parameters:definition.parameters | keys(@)}"
}

Common Operations
1. Workflow Health Overview
workflows=$(az logic workflow list --output json --query "[].{name:name, rg:resourceGroup}")
for wf in $(echo "$workflows" | jq -c '.[]'); do
{
name=$(echo "$wf" | jq -r '.name')
rg=$(echo "$wf" | jq -r '.rg')
echo "=== $name ==="
az logic workflow show --name "$name" --resource-group "$rg" --output json \
--query "{state:state, version:version, sku:sku, accessControl:accessControl}"
get_run_history "$name" "$rg" 10
} &
done
wait
2. Failed Run Analysis
az rest --method GET \
--url "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/$RG/providers/Microsoft.Logic/workflows/$WORKFLOW/runs?api-version=2016-06-01&\$filter=status eq 'Failed'&\$top=10" \
--output json --query "value[].{runId:name, startTime:properties.startTime, error:properties.error}"
az rest --method GET \
--url "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/$RG/providers/Microsoft.Logic/workflows/$WORKFLOW/runs/$RUN_ID/actions?api-version=2016-06-01" \
--output json --query "value[?properties.status=='Failed'].{action:name, status:properties.status, error:properties.error, startTime:properties.startTime}"
3. Trigger History and Status
triggers=$(az logic workflow show --name "$WORKFLOW" --resource-group "$RG" --output json --query "definition.triggers | keys(@)")
for trigger in $(echo "$triggers" | jq -r '.[]'); do
{
get_trigger_history "$WORKFLOW" "$RG" "$trigger" 10
} &
done
wait
4. Connector and Connection Health
list_connections "$RG"
az rest --method GET \
--url "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/$RG/providers/Microsoft.Web/connections?api-version=2016-06-01" \
--output json --query "value[?properties.statuses[0].status!='Connected'].{name:name, api:properties.api.name, status:properties.statuses[0].status, error:properties.statuses[0].error}"
5. Run Metrics and Performance
resource_id=$(az logic workflow show --name "$WORKFLOW" --resource-group "$RG" --query "id" -o tsv)
az monitor metrics list --resource "$resource_id" \
--metric "RunsStarted" "RunsSucceeded" "RunsFailed" "RunLatency" "TriggersFired" "TriggersSucceeded" "TriggersFailed" \
--interval PT1H --aggregation Total Average --output json
Output Format
Present results as a structured report:
Azure Logic Apps Report
═══════════════════════
Resources discovered: [count]
Resource Status Key Metric Issues
──────────────────────────────────────────────
[name] [ok/warn] [value] [findings]
Summary: [total] resources | [ok] healthy | [warn] warnings | [crit] critical
Action Items: [list of prioritized findings]
Target ≤50 lines of output. Use tables for multi-resource comparisons.
Anti-Hallucination Rules
- NEVER assume resource names — always discover via CLI/API in Phase 1 before referencing in Phase 2.
- NEVER fabricate metric names or dimensions — verify against the service documentation or
--help output.
- NEVER mix CLI commands between service versions — confirm which version/API you are targeting.
- ALWAYS use the discovery → verify → analyze chain — every resource referenced must have been discovered first.
- ALWAYS handle empty results gracefully — an empty response is valid data, not an error to retry.
Counter-Rationalizations
| Shortcut | Counter | Why |
|---|
| "I'll skip discovery and check known resources" | Always run Phase 1 discovery first | Resource names change, new resources appear — assumed names cause errors |
| "The user only asked for a quick check" | Follow the full discovery → analysis flow | Quick checks miss critical issues; structured analysis catches silent failures |
| "Default configuration is probably fine" | Audit configuration explicitly | Defaults often leave logging, security, and optimization features disabled |
| "Metrics aren't needed for this" | Always check relevant metrics when available | API/CLI responses show current state; metrics reveal trends and intermittent issues |
| "I don't have access to that" | Try the command and report the actual error | Assumed permission failures prevent useful investigation; actual errors are informative |
Common Pitfalls
- Consumption vs Standard: Standard Logic Apps use different CLI commands (
az logicapp instead of az logic workflow). Check the SKU first.
- Connection authentication expiry: OAuth-based connections (Office 365, Dynamics) expire and need re-authentication. Check connection status regularly.
- Trigger polling costs: Recurrence triggers on consumption plan incur one action execution per poll, even with no data. Review polling frequency.
- Retry policies: Default retry is 4 times with exponential backoff. Failed runs may have succeeded on retry -- check individual action statuses.
- Concurrency limits: Default concurrency is unlimited for triggers. High-volume triggers can cause throttling on downstream services.
