Azure Monitor
Add Azure Monitor to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed an Azure Monitor integration so your customers can surface metrics, log queries, and alerts inside your product, with access scoped per tenant and every read logged. Alerts arrive through event triggers rather than polling, so your product reacts in near real time.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers read metrics for their own resources into your product.
Run log queries and read results so diagnostics happen where users work.
Read alert state so incidents surface in your product.
Trigger your product when an alert fires or resolves.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent reads recent metrics before diagnosing an incident.
An agent runs a scoped log query to explain an error spike.
An agent reacts to a firing alert and assembles the initial context.
Example prompt
Show resources whose error rate rose more than 50 percent in the last hour and the firing alerts.
Set up Azure Monitor in 4 steps
- 01Open the Azure Monitor connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authenticate their Azure subscription with read scopes.
- 03Map the resources, workspaces, and alert rules your product covers, then enable triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the Azure Monitor integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship an Azure Monitor integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Azure Monitor account inside your product and work their incidents, alerts and on-call schedules there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: alerting is latency-critical and noisy, so filtering and deduplication matter. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so an Azure Monitor update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Azure Monitor connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you route operational signal to the people and systems that act on it without wiring it twice.

AppViewXAzure Monitor integration FAQ
How do I add an Azure Monitor integration to my product?
Enable the Azure Monitor connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Azure Monitor account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Azure Monitor client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Azure Monitor account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Azure Monitor account and only ever sees their own incidents, alerts and on-call schedules. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Azure Monitor integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent reads recent metrics before diagnosing an incident.
Who maintains the Azure Monitor integration?
fastn does. When Azure Monitor changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
How fast does an Azure Monitor alert reach my product?
Alerts arrive through event triggers rather than polling, so your product reacts in near real time instead of on a schedule.
Can duplicate or flapping alerts be suppressed?
Yes. Events are deduplicated per incident, so a flapping check does not create a queue of identical records for your users to sift through.
What can I build with the Azure Monitor integration?
A common starting point: read metrics for their own resources into your product. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Azure Monitor integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Azure Monitor does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
