Question

To Suppress Dependency logs getting ingested to Log Analytics workspace from Application insights.

Debjyoti Ganguly 30

Hi Team,

Currently we have few app insights which collects logs and ingests the same in our Log analytics workspace. Since we have a daily cap of 50 GB for log Analytic workspace in our customer environment, so we want to avoid "Dependency Logs" getting ingested in to Log Analytics workspace to avoid daily over consumption. We have set the Log level as Error in our Appsetting.json file for the respective web app services but still dependecy logs are getting captured by app insights which pushes the same to Log analytics workspace.

Please help me to suppress the Dependency logs.

@Anonymous Thanks for your question. Can you please provide below information so that I can provide you solution based on it ?

Are you using classic application insights or workspace based application insights ?

What is the process instrumented with Application Insights: App Service Web App, Azure Function, IIS Hosted Web App, etc?

How was the process instrumented via automatic (code-less) or manual (SDK) ?

Which language is your code deployed?

This is my host.json file and I still get them! I am using workspace based. It's an Azure Function in C#

{
  "version": "2.0",
  "logging": {
    "logging": {
      "logLevel": {
        "default": "Warning",
        "Function": "Warning",
        "Host.Aggregator": "Error",
        "Host.Results": "Warning",
        "Microsoft": "Error",
        "Worker": "Error"
      },
      "applicationInsights": {
        "samplingSettings": {
          "isEnabled": true,
          "maxTelemetryItemsPerSecond": 10,
          "initialSamplingPercentage": 50.0,
          "excludedTypes": "Dependency;PageView;Event"
        },
        "enableLiveMetrics": false,
        "enableDependencyTracking": false,
        "enablePerformanceCountersCollection": false
      }
    }
  }
}
