Microsoft Azure App Service

Use this SAM application monitor template to monitor requests sent to the Microsoft Azure App service, an HTTP-based service for hosting web applications, REST APIs, and mobile backends. To use this template, assign it to an external node that points to portal.azure.com.

Passwords for legacy Microsoft Azure application monitor templates and related application monitors are stored as plain text in the SolarWinds Platform database. SolarWinds recommends switching to Microsoft Azure API poller templates that leverage OAuth 2.0 authorization.”

Prerequisites

This template was updated in March 2020 to fix an issue with the Average response time monitor. If using a version of SAM installed before SAM 2020.2, import the latest version from THWACK.

Notes

Include Azure Portal credentials in script arguments for component monitors, as shown in this example:

subID,TenantID,APPID,SecretKey=secretKey,APPNAME,RESOURCEGROUP,TimeRange=1 

Optional parameters, such as $waitTime can be passed in script arguments. See the Script Body field for examples.
