在 Azure 的 Application Insights 中记录 session state Redis 的缓存

Question

I'm working on ASP.NET web application connected to Azure. Is it possible to see not only common data about connected clients and expired keys, but also more detailed logs per session (some session state info as session ID, ect.) current data in Insights for Azure Cache for Redis

I configured session state storing in the cache as in this topic , but can't find information I needed.

Answer 1

Check the below steps to view the Session Info in ASP.Net Application for Azure Cache for Redis.

• Created ASP.Net Application in Visual Studio.
• Copy the Hostname from Azure Redis Cache Properties .

• And Password (access Key) from Redis Cache => Access Keys => Primary Key .

My Web.config file:

• Publish the Code to Azure App Service.
• Enable Application Insights while Publishing to Azure itself.

• In your deployed Application make sure Application Insights is Enabled.

• You can see the No. of sessions in Application Insights => Sessions .

• If you click on View More Insights tab, we will get the below data.

• Click on View session timeline to get the session ID.
