Use Azure Application Insights with Azure WebJob

问题

The Azure documentation covers many examples of integrating Azure Application Insights into different applications types, such as ASP.NET, Java, etc. However, the documentation doesn't show any examples of integrating Application Insights into a Azure WebJob.

Does anyone have link to an example or article that covers how to integrate Azure Application Insights into an Azure WebJob that's built as a Console App?

回答1:

I have written a console application that tracks events and metrics via Application Insights, and I figure a WebJob won't be all that different, by adding the following NuGet packages:

• Microsoft.ApplicationInsights
• Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.TraceListener (this may not be required)

My ApplicationInsights.config looks like this:

<ApplicationInsights xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ApplicationInsights/2013/Settings">
    <TelemetryModules>
        <Add Type="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.Implementation.Tracing.DiagnosticsTelemetryModule, Microsoft.ApplicationInsights" />
    </TelemetryModules>
</ApplicationInsights>

And the simple program does this:

TelemetryConfiguration.Active.InstrumentationKey = "the_key";
TelemetryConfiguration.Active.TelemetryChannel.DeveloperMode = true;

var tc = new TelemetryClient();
tc.TrackRequest("Track Some Request", DateTimeOffset.UtcNow, new TimeSpan(0, 0, 3), "200", true);
tc.TrackMetric("XYZ Metric", 100);
tc.TrackEvent("Tracked Event");

tc.Flush(); //need to do this, otherwise if the app exits the telemetry data won't be sent

There is also this: Application Insights on Windows Desktop apps, services and worker roles

Since the above answer is 2 years old and many things have changed since then. Now there is nuget package available for Application insights integration with Azure Webjobs. You need to install below packages:

1. Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Logging.ApplicationInsights (Currently in beta)
2. Microsoft.Extensions.Logging
3. Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Console

Configure JobHostConfiguration as below:

string instrumentationKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("APPINSIGHTS_INSTRUMENTATIONKEY");
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(instrumentationKey))
{
      // build up a LoggerFactory with ApplicationInsights and a Console Logger
       config.LoggerFactory = new LoggerFactory().AddApplicationInsights(instrumentationKey, null).AddConsole();
       config.Tracing.ConsoleLevel = TraceLevel.Off;
}
