Lab 14 Observations

[pstueck]

Module: 07 – Integrate Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL with Azure services

Lab/Demo: 14 – Process Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL data using Azure Functions

Task: Implement function code in .NET

Step: 10

As every other step, mentioning log section ...

• the default log panel is Azure Insight Logs
• with the student account, the Azure Insight Logs panel isn’t available (it keeps connecting and connecting and …)
• with an Azure Demo Account, the Azure Insight Logs is not very helpful, as it does not provide any log output at all

Suggestion: add an info to switch to Filesystem Logs, which are – despite the mentioned restrictions – more helpful.

Step: 11

Compilation fails …

There are resources (Google, Reddit, …) explaining why that happens and how to solve it.
Admittedly, I am not verse enought to understand that all (also it seems to require a local VSCode as well).

I have added steps to pre-create the Log Analytics and Application Insight. However there appears to be an issue with the NuGet libraries no longer loading. Note that this was working in the past. I am researching why is this happening now.

Working with Product Team to research this further.
