Logic Apps end-to-end tracking (distributed tracing)

Question

We are building integrations in Azure using a combination of Logic Apps, APIs and Azure Functions. We have requirements for end-to-end tracking of transactions from source to destination, i.e distributed tracing. We need to be able to track on custom fields, such as orderId. Any advice on how to best achieve this, pointer to articles, samples, videos are highly appreciated.

Many thanks.

@Ershad Nozari In case of Azure functions and APIs you can leverage Application Insight and post custom logs (assuming it is C#) : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-dotnet-class-library?tabs=v2%2Ccmd#log-custom-telemetry-in-c-functions

However, for logic app you can try log analytics. If you want something specific you may set Tracked property : https://www.serverlessnotes.com/docs/logic-apps-tracking-message-properties
or send data to log analytics : https://www.middleway.eu/azure-monitor-log-custom-data-through-azure-logic-apps/

You may take look into https://yourazurecoach.com/2018/08/05/end-to-end-correlation-across-logic-apps/ to use the correlation id throughout.
