Azure-docs: TrackAvailability fails to log the custom test results

[karthikdevarakonda]

I used the TrackAvailability API to send the custom results but it fails to send the data even with the correct instrumentation key. Can you please provide some detailed documentation on that

@karthikdevarakonda Sorry for not getting back sooner on this. I believe you should be able to see it under Availability Results in Analytics, Search, and Metrics blades.

Here is the screenshot for querying Analytics, for instance:

Search:

Metrics:

Please give it a try and let me know!

@BhargaviAnnadevara-MSFT i did look into the custom results but no luck.

I think i'm missing some config or settings. here are the steps i have tried:

1. Created a test project
2. Added appinsights nuget package
3. Defined the telemetry config with the instrumentation key
4. Sending a Custom event to track and a custom availability metric to track

But i dont see them on the portal.

@karthikdevarakonda Thanks for the additional info. I shall check this in greater detail and get back to you.

@BhargaviAnnadevara-MSFT it started to work couple of observations:

• it takes approx 2 - 3 mins to create the log
• few changes i made to code was i have instantiate the TelemetryConfiguration and pass that as a parameter in Telemetry client.

TelemetryConfiguration config = new TelemetryConfiguration("_iKey_");
TelemetryClient client = new Telemetry(config);

I was passing the ikey as part of telemetryclient context instead it should be instantiated in the telemetryconfiguration.

Thanks for your help.. I'm closing this for now
