This a sample class library for sending JSON obects to Log Analytics as a Custom Log event. The API will accept a single event, or an array of events within the JSON.
- This sample is built in .NET Standard 2.0, using Visual Studio 2017, but can be backported without change to older versions of .NET and VS.
- This sample has no Nuget dependencies.
- This sample requires refferences to System.Net.HTTP, and System.Text, and System.Security.Cryptograpy.
Currently, the Custom Log feature in Log Analytics is in preview, and you must enable preview features within your Workspace to use this code.
string response = OMSCustomLog.LogSender.Send(WorkSpaceId, WorkSpaceKey, CustomLogName, EventJson);I welcome feedback and contributions on this sample.
Opportunities for extending this class include:
- Exposing the sender as an async method
- Chunking large batches of records to fit within the batch send limit on the API
