Azure workbook graph visualization basics

Question

I want to explore Azure workbook graph visualization basics. But there is no basic material/documentation to start from scratch.

I am unable to understand properly the documentation below.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/visualize/workbooks-graph-visualizations

My questions are -

1. Do we need to write the query part and configure graphsetting to be able to generate a mapping like below?

1. Can you elaborate more on what is Node Id, source id and target id from this graph setting and also other basic specific fields required for a graph?

Answer 1

@Bhargav Pasarla - Thanks for reaching out to us.

1. Yes, the query is required and also configure the graph settings in order to generate a mapping.
2. NodeId provides the unique ID of nodes on the graph.
3. SourceId that provides the IDs of source nodes for edges on the graph.
4. TargetID provides the IDs of target nodes for edges on the graph.
5. Edge Label provides edge labels on the graph.
6. Edge Size provides the metric in which the edge widths will be based.
7. Node Size provides the metric on which the node areas will be based.

Hope this helps. and please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
