1. Challenge

   Create Function and Application Insights in the Azure Portal

   1. Review the lab-provisioned resources.
   2. Take note of the resource group location and the 5 character suffix for all of the deployed resources. These will be used later in the lab.
   3. Create a new function app.
   4. Once deployed, enable Application Insights.
2. Challenge

   RDP into the VM, Configure Storage Explorer, and Open the Visual Studio Solution

   1. Download the RDP file for the lab-provided VM.
   2. Connect to the VM, clone the Azure labs repository, and extract from it the solution file for the lab.
   3. Download and install Azure Storage Explorer.
   4. Configure storage explorer using resources created in the lab.
   5. Open the extracted solution file to start Visual Studio.
3. Challenge

   Update and Run Visual Studio Solution, Verify Table Data using Storage Explorer, and Verify Application Insights Data

   1. Using Visual Studio, update the local.settings.json and Functions1.cs files with information copied during previous lab objectives as well as the following code:

      public static class Function1
      {
          [FunctionName("Function1")]
          [return: Table("<TABLE_NAME>", Connection = "StorageConnectionAppSetting")]
          public static SampleData Run(
              [HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get", "post", Route = null)]
              HttpRequest req,
              ILogger log)
          {
              log.LogInformation("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
      
              string name = req.Query["name"];
      
              return new SampleData()
              {
                  PartitionKey = "Http",
                  RowKey = Guid.NewGuid().ToString(),
                  Text = name
              };
          }
      }
      
      public class SampleData : TableEntity
      {
          public string Text { get; set; }
      }
      

   2. Run the updated function.

   3. Using a web browser, test the updated function.

   4. Verify the data is stored in the table successfully using Azure Storage Explorer.

   5. Review the telemetry data using Application Insights.
