Test it
Using "azure-mgmt-applicationinsights-dotnet". Create Application Insights for a production web service with a Log Analytics workspace.
Expected outcome:
- Resource plan covering component name, region, workspace identifier, retention, sampling, tags, and private network settings.
- Ordered .NET SDK workflow using Azure credentials and the resource group component collection.
- Validation checklist that avoids printing connection strings, instrumentation keys, or API keys.
Using "azure-mgmt-applicationinsights-dotnet". Design an availability test for a public health endpoint from three regions.
Expected outcome:
- Test definition with three selected location identifiers, a five-minute frequency, retry behavior, and an expected success status.
- Deployment steps that link the web test to the Application Insights component.
- Operational notes for timeouts, endpoint authorization, and alert configuration.
Using "azure-mgmt-applicationinsights-dotnet". Explain how to update retention and sampling without replacing unrelated settings.
Expected outcome:
Retrieve the current component data, change only retention and sampling, submit the update, then verify the returned resource configuration.
Security Audit
High Riskv5 • 7/23/2026 Open versioned report
All 73 static findings are false positives caused by Markdown formatting, example URLs, documentation links, or ordinary error output. Two semantic risks remain: examples disclose credentials to console output and enable public network access by default.

Credentials Printed to Console Output
Examples print Application Insights connection strings, instrumentation keys, and API keys to console output, where logs can expose credentials. The API key is visible once.
The examples directly interpolate credential values into Console.WriteLine calls. Nearby comments identify the API key as a one-time secret.
Medium
Public Network Access Enabled by Default
The component example enables public network access for ingestion and queries, which can conflict with private network requirements.
Both public network access properties are explicitly set to Enabled in the primary creation example.

What You Can Build
Provision Monitoring Resources
Build a workspace-based Application Insights component with retention, sampling, tags, and secure network settings.
Automate Availability Tests
Define regional URL ping tests or multi-step login checks through the Azure Resource Manager SDK.
Standardize Observability Setup
Create reusable guidance for workbooks, linked storage, resource updates, and cleanup across application teams.
Try These Prompts
Create a Basic Component
Show how to create a workspace-based Application Insights component in .NET for [resource group], [region], and [workspace resource ID].
Add an Availability Test
Design a .NET availability test for [application URL] across [Azure locations] with [frequency] and [timeout]. Explain each setting.
Build an Operations Workbook
Plan an Application Insights workbook for [service] that shows [metrics] over [time range]. Include resource creation steps and KQL guidance.
Review a Production Design
Review my Application Insights .NET design for security, permissions, private networking, secret handling, retention, sampling, availability tests, and cleanup. Identify concrete changes.
Best Practices
- Use workspace-based components and confirm region compatibility with the selected Log Analytics workspace.
- Protect connection strings and API keys with managed configuration or Key Vault, and never write them to logs.
- Review retention, sampling, test locations, permissions, and network access against production policy before deployment.
Avoid
- Do not print connection strings, instrumentation keys, API keys, or credential-bearing exceptions.
- Do not enable public ingestion or query access without an explicit network security decision.
- Do not copy placeholder identifiers, regions, URLs, or permissions directly into production.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this skill deploy resources automatically?
No. It provides .NET guidance and examples that require your Azure environment, credentials, permissions, and execution.
Which Azure package does it cover?
It focuses on Azure.ResourceManager.ApplicationInsights and uses Azure.Identity for authentication.
Can it create availability tests?
Yes. It covers URL ping tests and multi-step web tests with locations, frequency, timeout, and component links.
Does it cover telemetry instrumentation?
Only briefly. Its primary scope is resource management, with a short ASP.NET Core connection string integration example.
Are the examples production ready?
No. Validate SDK versions, permissions, regions, networking, secret handling, costs, retention, and sampling before production use.
How should credentials and connection strings be handled?
Use managed identity, protected configuration, or Key Vault. Redact sensitive values from logs, output, tests, and support records.
