Azure App Configuration is a managed service that provides a central repository for managing application settings and feature flags. It allows development teams to decouple configuration from code, enabling dynamic configuration updates and feature rollouts without redeployment.
Applications Manager's Azure App Configuration monitoring provides visibility into the health and usage of your configuration stores. Track incoming HTTP request counts, request durations, throttled requests, storage consumption, request quota usage, snapshot storage, and geo-replication latency to ensure your configuration stores are operating reliably.

Navigate to the Category View by clicking the Monitors tab. Hover over Child Monitors under Microsoft Azure in the Cloud Apps table, and then select the App Configurations monitor from the displayed tooltip. This action displays the bulk configuration view for Azure App Configuration in three tabs:
The Microsoft Azure monitor provides a brief detail of the Azure App Configuration under the given subscription. The following metrics are monitored in the corresponding tabs:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| HTTP REQUESTS | |
| Incoming HTTP Requests | The total number of incoming HTTP requests between the poll intervals. |
| Throttled HTTP Requests | The total number of throttled HTTP requests between the poll intervals. |
| INCOMING HTTP REQUEST DURATION | |
| Incoming HTTP Request Duration | The average duration of incoming HTTP requests between the poll intervals. (in ms) |
| DAILY STORAGE USAGE | |
| Daily Storage Usage | The maximum storage usage of the App Configuration store at the time of polling. (in %) |
| REQUEST QUOTA USAGE | |
| Request Quota Usage | The maximum percentage of the request quota used at the time of polling. (in %) |
| SNAPSHOT STORAGE SIZE | |
| Snapshot Storage Size | The maximum storage size used by snapshots at the time of polling. (in MB) |
| REPLICATION LATENCY | |
| Replication Latency | The average replication latency of the geo-replicated configuration store between the poll intervals. (in ms) |
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| CONFIGURATION | |
| Resource Group Name | The resource group that contains the Azure App Configuration store. |
| Location | The Azure region where the Azure App Configuration store is deployed. |
| Provisioning State | The current provisioning state of the Azure App Configuration store. |
| SKU | The pricing tier of the Azure App Configuration store. |
| Local Authentication | Indicates whether local authentication is Enabled or Disabled for the Azure App Configuration store. |
| Purge Protection | Indicates whether purge protection is Enabled or Disabled for the Azure App Configuration store. |
| Soft Delete Retention Days | The number of days that soft-deleted items are retained before permanent deletion. |
| Creation Time | The date and time when the Azure App Configuration store was created. |
| Endpoint | The endpoint URL of the Azure App Configuration store. |
It allows us to track crucial metrics such as response times, resource utilization, error rates, and transaction performance. The real-time monitoring alerts promptly notify us of any issues or anomalies, enabling us to take immediate action.
