Hello,

I want to collect logs from azure app service and send them to grafana through log analytics workspace.

for that I have thoughts about installing fluentbit through shell script and running it in app service. Is this right way to do that?

@Kumar Challa Yes, you can use Fluent Bit to collect logs from your Azure App Service and send them to Grafana through a Log Analytics workspace. Installing Fluent Bit through a shell script is one way to do it. Here are the high-level steps you can follow:

1. Create a Log Analytics workspace in your Azure subscription.
2. Enable diagnostic logs for your App Service and configure them to send logs to the Log Analytics workspace.
3. Create a Linux-based App Service plan and deploy your app to it.
4. Create a startup script that installs Fluent Bit and configures it to send logs to the Log Analytics workspace.
5. Configure the App Service to run the startup script on startup.
