Monitor logs in Azure Container Apps with Log Analytics

Azure Container Apps is integrated with Azure Monitor Log Analytics to monitor and analyze your container app's logs. When selected as your log monitoring solution, your Container Apps environment includes a Log Analytics workspace that provides a common place to store the system and application log data from all container apps running in the environment.

Log entries are accessible by querying Log Analytics tables through the Azure portal or a command shell using the Azure CLI.

There are two types of logs for Container Apps.

  • Console logs, which are emitted by your app.
  • System logs, which are emitted by the Container Apps service.

System Logs

The Container Apps service provides system log messages at the container app level. System logs emit the following messages:

Source Type Message
Dapr Info Successfully created dapr component <component-name> with scope <dapr-component-scope>
Dapr Info Successfully updated dapr component <component-name> with scope <component-type>
Dapr Error Error creating dapr component <component-name>
Volume Mounts Info Successfully mounted volume <volume-name> for revision <revision-scope>
Volume Mounts Error Error mounting volume <volume-name>
Domain Binding Info Successfully bound Domain <domain> to the container app <container app name>
Authentication Info Auth enabled on app. Creating authentication config
Authentication Info Auth config created successfully
Traffic weight Info Setting a traffic weight of <percentage>% for revision <revision-name\>
Revision Provisioning Info Creating a new revision: <revision-name>
Revision Provisioning Info Successfully provisioned revision <name>
Revision Provisioning Info Deactivating Old revisions since 'ActiveRevisionsMode=Single'
Revision Provisioning Error Error provisioning revision <revision-name>. ErrorCode: <[ErrImagePull]|[Timeout]|[ContainerCrashing]>

The system log data is accessible by querying the ContainerAppSystemLogs_CL table. The most used Container Apps specific columns in the table are:

Column Description
ContainerAppName_s Container app name
EnvironmentName_s Container Apps environment name
Log_s Log message
RevisionName_s Revision name

Console Logs

Console logs originate from the stderr and stdout messages from the containers in your container app and Dapr sidecars. You can view console logs by querying the ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL table.

Tip

Instrumenting your code with well-defined log messages can help you to understand how your code is performing and to debug issues. To learn more about best practices refer to Design for operations.

The most commonly used Container Apps specific columns in ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL include:

Column Description
ContainerAppName_s Container app name
ContainerGroupName_g Replica name
ContainerId_s Container identifier
ContainerImage_s Container image name
EnvironmentName_s Container Apps environment name
Log_s Log message
RevisionName_s Revision name

Query Log with Log Analytics

Log Analytics is a tool in the Azure portal that you can use to view and analyze log data. Using Log Analytics, you can write Kusto queries and then sort, filter, and visualize the results in charts to spot trends and identify issues. You can work interactively with the query results or use them with other features such as alerts, dashboards, and workbooks.

Azure portal

Start Log Analytics from Logs in the sidebar menu on your container app page. You can also start Log Analytics from Monitor>Logs.

You can query the logs using the tables listed in the CustomLogs category Tables tab. The tables in this category are the ContainerAppSystemlogs_CL and ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL tables.

Screenshot of the Log Analytics custom log tables.

Below is a Kusto query that displays console log entries for the container app named album-api.

ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL
| where ContainerAppName_s == 'album-api'
| project Time=TimeGenerated, AppName=ContainerAppName_s, Revision=RevisionName_s, Container=ContainerName_s, Message=Log_s
| take 100

Below is a Kusto query that displays system log entries for the container app named album-api.

ContainerAppSystemLogs_CL
| where ContainerAppName_s == 'album-api'
| project Time=TimeGenerated, EnvName=EnvironmentName_s, AppName=ContainerAppName_s, Revision=RevisionName_s, Message=Log_s
| take 100

For more information regarding Log Analytics and log queries, see the Log Analytics tutorial.

Azure CLI/PowerShell

Container Apps logs can be queried using the Azure CLI.

These example Azure CLI queries output a table containing log records for the container app name album-api. The table columns are specified by the parameters after the project operator. The $WORKSPACE_CUSTOMER_ID variable contains the GUID of the Log Analytics workspace.

This example queries the ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL table:

az monitor log-analytics query --workspace $WORKSPACE_CUSTOMER_ID --analytics-query "ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL | where ContainerAppName_s == 'album-api' | project Time=TimeGenerated, AppName=ContainerAppName_s, Revision=RevisionName_s, Container=ContainerName_s, Message=Log_s, LogLevel_s | take 5" --out table

This example queries the ContainerAppSystemLogs_CL table:

az monitor log-analytics query --workspace $WORKSPACE_CUSTOMER_ID --analytics-query "ContainerAppSystemLogs_CL | where ContainerAppName_s == 'album-api' | project Time=TimeGenerated, AppName=ContainerAppName_s, Revision=RevisionName_s, Message=Log_s, LogLevel_s | take 5" --out table
