Hello @Ankush Gurjar

The alert you received is called "Failure Anomalies" and it notifies you of an unusual rise in the rate of failed HTTP requests or dependency calls.

This alert is generated when there is an abnormal rise in dependency failure rate. The cause of this alert could be due to a variety of reasons such as network issues, server issues, or application code issues.

To investigate further, you can click on 'View full details in Application Insights' which will take you straight to a search page filtered to the relevant requests, exception, dependency, or traces.

You can also open the Azure portal, navigate to the Application Insights resource for your app, and open the Failures page. Clicking on 'Diagnose failures' will help you get more details and resolve the issue.

Based on the percentage of requests and number of users affected, you can decide how urgent the issue is. If the failure rate is high and a large number of users are affected, then it is important to take immediate action to resolve the issue.
