Azure Application Insights - Split custom events by multiple dimensions

Question

I'm new to Azure Application insights.

I have a Custom Event that captures, User and Action.

Is it possible to visualize this so I can see it grouped by Day, with a bar in the chart for each user that is then split by the action?

Answer 1

To track the Custom Events, navigate to Usage=>Events in Azure Application Insights of your App Service:

• Select Any CustomEvent in Who used section.
• You can select the other options like Day, Split by etc., according to your requirement.

You can also track the Custom Events using KQL query in Application Insights=>Logs :

customEvents
| where name == "<customEventName>"
| summarize count() by bin(timestamp, 1d), tostring(customDimensions.user) , tostring(customDimensions.action)

You can see the result in Chart section.
