How to view Service Bus metrics/dashboard without elevation request?

Question

Hello!

We are looking for ways to monitor and view Azure Service Bus metrics such as queue size without having to get an elevation request every time. Is there an API that we can call to fetch such metrics to directly view it in Kusto or Geneva?

If not, what is the most recommended way to Service Bus customers to conveniently and effectively access the metrics and dashboards that come with the Service Bus feature?

Accepted Answer

@Catherine Du Thanks for reaching out. To monitor and view Azure Service Bus metrics such as queue size without needing an elevation request every time, you can use the Azure Monitor REST API. This API allows you to programmatically access metrics and logs for your Azure resources, including Azure Service Bus. You can then integrate these metrics with Kusto or Geneva for further analysis and visualization.

The API provides various endpoints to query metrics, logs, and alerts. You can use the metrics endpoint to retrieve metrics such as queue size.

Example API request to fetch Service Bus queue size metrics:

GET https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces/{namespaceName}/queues/{queueName}/providers/microsoft.insights/metrics?api-version=2018-01-01&metricnames=Size

Once you have the metrics, you can use Kusto to store and analyze the data. You can create a scheduled task to periodically fetch metrics using the Azure Monitor REST API and ingest them into Kusto.
