Legacy Application Insights meters

Most Application Insights usage for both classic and workspace-based resources is reported on meters with Log Analytics for Meter Category because there's a single log back-end for all Azure Monitor components. Only Application Insights resources on legacy pricing tiers and multiple-step web tests are reported with Application Insights for Meter Category. The usage is shown in the Consumed Quantity column. The unit for each entry is shown in the Unit of Measure column. For more information, see Understand your Microsoft Azure bill.

To separate costs from your Log Analytics and classic Application Insights usage, create a filter on Resource type. To see all Application Insights costs, filter Resource type to microsoft.insights/components. For Log Analytics costs, filter Resource type to microsoft.operationalinsights/workspaces. (Workspace-based Application Insights is all billed to the Log Analytics workspace resourced.)
