Generic Azure Resource Declaration

Generic Azure Resource -

You can declare to scrape a generic Azure resource via the Generic resource type.

The following fields need to be provided:

resourceUri - The uri of the Azure resource to scrape.
filter - The filter to use to have fine-grained metrics. Example: EntityName eq 'orders'

Promitor simplifies defining resource uris by using the subscription & resource group defined in azureMetadata so that your configuration is small & readable.

Example:

name: azure_service_bus_active_messages
description: "Amount of active messages of the 'myqueue' queue (determined with Generic provider)"
resourceType: Generic
azureMetricConfiguration:
  metricName: ActiveMessages
  aggregation:
    type: Total
resources:
# Will scrape subscriptions/<sub>/resourceGroups/<rg>/providers/Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces/promitor-messaging
# Where 'sub' & 'rg' are coming from azureMetadata
- resourceUri: Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces/promitor-messaging
  filter: EntityName eq 'orders'
- resourceUri: Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces/promitor-messaging
  filter: EntityName eq 'items'
