Hello Team,

I enabled alert rule for all the backend response code NOT EQUAL to 200.

can any one help me here to address this issue.

Hi @MOHAMED BAHARDEEN S Thanks for reaching out. Alert rule scope always applies to the entire APIM service You cannot set up an alert specifically at API level. In order to fetch the API details, you can enable Diagnostic Logging to Log Analytics and then create an alert based on a query you write.

Query examples:

//Get the logs for all backend response code not equal to 200
// To create an alert for this query, click '+ New alert rule'
ApiManagementGatewayLogs
| where TimeGenerated > ago(1d)
| where BackendResponseCode != 200

please let me know incase of further queries, I would be glad to assist you.
