# Azure Application Insights Output Plugin
This plugin writes metrics to the [Azure Application Insights][insights]
service.
⭐ Telegraf v1.7.0
🏷️ applications, cloud
💻 all
[insights]: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/application-insights/
## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
## Configuration
```toml @sample.conf
# Send metrics to Azure Application Insights
[[outputs.application_insights]]
## Instrumentation key of the Application Insights resource.
instrumentation_key = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx"
## Regions that require endpoint modification https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/app/custom-endpoints
# endpoint_url = "https://dc.services.visualstudio.com/v2/track"
## Timeout for closing (default: 5s).
# timeout = "5s"
## Enable additional diagnostic logging.
# enable_diagnostic_logging = false
## NOTE: Due to the way TOML is parsed, tables must be at the END of the
## plugin definition, otherwise additional config options are read as part of
## the table
## Context Tag Sources add Application Insights context tags to a tag value.
##
## For list of allowed context tag keys see:
## https://github.com/microsoft/ApplicationInsights-Go/blob/master/appinsights/contracts/contexttagkeys.go
# [outputs.application_insights.context_tag_sources]
# "ai.cloud.role" = "kubernetes_container_name"
# "ai.cloud.roleInstance" = "kubernetes_pod_name"
```
## Metric Encoding
For each field an Application Insights Telemetry record is created named based
on the measurement name and field.
**Example:** Create the telemetry records `foo_first` and `foo_second`:
```text
foo,host=a first=42,second=43 1525293034000000000
```
In the special case of a single field named `value`, a single telemetry record
is created named using only the measurement name
**Example:** Create a telemetry record `bar`:
```text
bar,host=a value=42 1525293034000000000
```
