When sending Python logging records to Application Insights via AzureMonitorLogExporter, which standard Application Insights tables store these log records?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Identifies traces and customEvents as the destination tables for log exporter telemetry | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Low-level exporter for sending OpenTelemetry traces, metrics, and logs to Application Insights.
pip install azure-monitor-opentelemetry-exporter
APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_CONNECTION_STRING=InstrumentationKey=xxx;IngestionEndpoint=https://xxx.in.applicationinsights.azure.com/ # Required for all auth methods
AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=prod # Required only if DefaultAzureCredential is used in production
🔑 Two rules apply to every code sample below:
- Prefer
DefaultAzureCredentialfor ingestion auth when supported.APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_CONNECTION_STRINGidentifies the target Application Insights resource, andcredential=DefaultAzureCredential(...)provides Microsoft Entra authentication.
- Local dev:
DefaultAzureCredentialworks as-is.- Production: set
AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=prod(orAZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=<specific_credential>) to constrain the credential chain to production-safe credentials.- Providers are not context managers. Flush and shut down telemetry providers explicitly at process exit so buffers are exported deterministically.
Snippets may abbreviate this setup, but production code should always follow both rules.
