Description of issue (in as much detail as possible)

I am trying to create a alert for a Application Insight web test which should have failedLocationCount as trigger. Doing this in the portal gives a resource scope that looks like this:

"scopes": [
            "/subscriptions/SubscriptionId/resourcegroups/ResourceGroup/providers/microsoft.insights/webtests/webTestName",
            "/subscriptions/SubscriptionId/resourcegroups/ResourceGroup/providers/microsoft.insights/components/componentName"
        ],

Dimension in manual create:

"criteria": {
            "failedLocationCount": 2,
            "webTestId": "/subscriptions/subscriptions/SubscriptionId/resourcegroups/ResourceGroup/providers/microsoft.insights/webtests/webTestName",
            "componentId": "/subscriptions/subscriptions/SubscriptionId/resourcegroups/ResourceGroup/providers/microsoft.insights/components/componentName",
            "odata.type": "Microsoft.Azure.Monitor.WebtestLocationAvailabilityCriteria"

Dimension in Az Cli: "count failedLocationCount > 2" Scope in Az Cli:

/subscriptions/subscriptions/SubscriptionId/resourcegroups/ResourceGroup/providers/microsoft.insights/webtests/webtestName
/subscriptions/subscriptions/SubscriptionId/resourcegroups/ResourceGroup/providers/microsoft.insights/components/componentName

When trying to replicate this with Azure Cli I get the following error: ERROR: Multiple scopes should be the same resource type.

When only doing one of the scopes I get the following: {"code":"BadRequest","message":"microsoft.insights/webtests is not a supported platform metric namespace

Or

ERROR: (BadRequest) Couldn't find a metric named failedLocationCount. Make sure the name is correct. Activity ID: <id>
Code: BadRequest

What would be the correct format for Scope?
