There is a way to capture both items, but they aren't included in the base agent for .NET Framework.
Is there a good way to view which browser versions (Chrome, Firefox, etc) are being used for a given period of time.
There are two options for capturing this data.
- (Recommended) Use the
browser-side App Insights package to capture client info. In this case the device info will be captured by default. The data can be queried from the `pageViews` table.
pageViews
| summarize CountByBrowser=count() by client_Browser, bin(timestamp, 1d)
| top 10 by CountByBrowser
| render columnchart kind=stacked
- Use a custom TelemetryInitializer to capture the information server-side with each request. In this case, you would decide where you want
to store the data, usually either in the user data or in a custom dimension. You can find an example on how you might do the in
this Stack post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51155252/user-agent-information-in-azure-application-insights
public class MyCustomTelemetryInitializer: ITelemetryInitializer
{
readonly IHttpContextAccessor _httpContextAccessor;
public MyCustomTelemetryInitializer(IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor)
{
_httpContextAccessor = httpContextAccessor;
}
public void Initialize(ITelemetry telemetry)
{
if (telemetry is RequestTelemetry requestTelemetry)
{
requestTelemetry.Context.User.Id = _httpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Request.Headers["User-Agent"];
}
}
}
More info about TelemetryInitializers in general can be found in the docs: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/app/api-filtering-sampling
Is there a good way to view which TLS/SSL versions are being used for a given period of time?
As with the second option above, a custom TelemetryInitializer will allow you to send custom data to App Insights. Getting the TLS version
will be a bit more complicated however. There is a long discussion on how to do this in
this Stack Overflow thread. Primarily by using reflection to access the properties in the underlying request stream. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48589590/which-tls-version-was-negotiated
