Hi, Currently I'm trying to create a dashboard in grafana and visualize my data.

To do this I followed the below link https://sandervandevelde.wordpress.com/2021/06/15/cloud-iot-dashboards-using-grafana-with-azure-iot/

I did all the steps mentioned and finally able to create a VM for grafana.

But when I opened my chrome and gave the follwing address as mentioned in the blog

http://vm_public_ip_address:3000 it is not opening any grafana.

What would be the cause?

    Hello @Sai Devaraj Manoharan ,

    welcome to this moderated Azure community forum.

    This blog post was submitted before Azure Managed Grafana was introduced.

    As stated in the article, this managed version is highly recommended as a viable replacement over running your own VM, especially combined with Azure Data Explorer.

    The VM I describe comes with a flaw regarding the Network Security Group.

    If you still want to proceed with the VM, check if port 3000 is exposed to the outside world (TCP, any direction/destination.

    Opening the port means you need to think about security. I would personally recommend (personal) Azure Bastion to access the VM nowadays.
