Push notifications for Smart Detection alerts
The email is usually a low priority tool. When there is a critical problem, I notice it too late (when I take the cell to check the email). I usually recive thousands of emails every day, however, push notifications are much less common and more visible.
17 votesWhile there’s no update to the status of this suggestion, you may find an interim solution for setting up alerts on the Smart Detection preview rules described in this article:

Add Seconday Axis to Charts in Analytics
I have 3 output columns TimeStamp(datetime), JobRunDuration (int), RowsProcessed (int)
When I use “render timechart” AI is showing me the two Int values on same axis.
It would be great if a secondary axis could be added to charts so that two values could be represented in same chat.17 votes -
Create AI VSTS widget that supports Analytics queries
Create a VSTS widget that supports Analytics queries. Being able to use Analytics Queries would be really useful. With AIQL, you can create widgets that are targeted, meaningful, and specific to the team.
17 votesThere is no effort on this integration for the foreseeable future, so moving this status to unplanned.

Add metric namespace property to customMetrics table
Metric namespace is available to filer by when building a chart on Metrics blade. However, there is no way to query or filter by metric namespace when querying customMetrics table in Log Analytics.
Is it possible to add metric namespace property to customMetrics table?

Pre-filtered application map
Allow creation of pre-filtered views for application map. I have many nodes writing to the same application insights from different environments.
It will be helpful if i could create a pre-filtered views of the application map using specific cloud role names16 votesThanks for the valid suggestion.

Application Insights: Increase length of message property
Message of logged exception is often cut off. Full data cannot be displayed.
Please increase length of message property to get full data.16 votes -
App Insight integration with Azure Key Vault
It would be great to have a tight integration of App Insight with Azure Key Vault so that it allows App Insight able to fetch credentials directly from Key Vault during run time to run the availability web tests. We don't want to hard code anything in web tests to connect to Key Vault but rather it should be able to connect and fetch required credentials from Vault and run the web tests.

Move dashboard widgets to another dashboard
I am currently building multiple AppInsight dashboards and discovered there is no way to move a widget from one dashboard to another. Also, when looking at a AppInsight Chart and clicking the pin, I can't tell which dashboard it will be pinned to.

Ability to export all the data of currently selected event to CSV / JSON
When you've selected a particular event, all of it's data is show in the detail tab. Provide an ability to quickly save this as CSV / JSON from the portal for reference.

Integrate Azure Application Insights Dashboard with Microsoft Teams
The Azure AI Dashboard is really amazing, we have all our required data available at one place. However, we want the ability to integrate that dashboard on Microsoft Teams, as the data we are aiming to collect is mainly for Product people and we do not want them to login to azure portal time and again to check the stats from application, also, we do not want them to modify anything on the portal. Also we want all the some of the other devs to have access to that data, but we do not want them to mess with the…

User Flow custom time range support
Currently user cannot set custom time range on User Flow menu and it is difficult to get User Flow for specified interval. (e.g. to get daily report, user has to log-in Azure portal same time every day to get last 24 hours of data. )
Please add custom time range support on user Flow menu.15 votes -
Support exception.Data.Add()
The Exception class allows us to add custom data using exception.Data.Add("label", "value"). It would be useful if this data could show up in Application Insights.
Using telemetry.TrackException() we can report custom data in a very similar way as a Dictionary<string,string>, so hopefully it wouldn't be much work to support exception.Data.Add().
The advantage would be that the custom data would be supported for exceptions that are caught and rethrown, as well as those using telemetary.TrackException().

Enable ARM configuration of smart detection rules
Programmatic control over Smart Detection rule settings is needed.
15 votesThank you for posting this suggestion.
While work has not started on this suggestion yet, configuring Smart Detection rules via ARM and integrating with Action Groups are in our plans, and something we’d very much like to add after the current set of priorities are implemented. We’ll keep posting updates here as anything changes.
As for supporting “to define separate rules sets based on resource groups”, could you please clarify on this suggestion? Are you looking to configure Smart Detection rules at the resource group level rather than on the individual Application Insights resource?
Thanks,

Embeddables/Web widgets
I would love to be able to take different metrics/data, and show them with live data on my own company website or dashboard.
We could show the overall performance of our company apps on our custom dashboard.
It could be an easy way for us to give customers various data about our apps on their environment.And tonnes of more uses.
15 votesAt this stage, this feature is still on our backlog, with no specific ETA.
To make the most of your queries, at this point we can offer to either pin them to a shared Azure dashboard, or export to Power BI.- Noa Kuperberg

First class support for Service Fabric
While Service Fabric was in preview there was a nuget package for AI in SF, but seems that it has not gone GA with SF. Would love to see health reports from SF in AI, along with monitoring of services/actors.

filter app map based on tag or environment
App Map as well as metrics can get cluttered with dev/test and even local machine data. While you could use different app insights keys, it would also be helpful to easily tag an environment and then easily filter out an environment on app map and other visualizations

Ensure live metrics respects the current theme
The portal looks great. Very slick. Not applying the dark theme to this cool view is jarring.

URL of monitor the availability of website
When we use monitor the availability of website, insert URL on Azure portal. On the other hand, It seems that the syntax of the URL is not checked.
For example, even if insert "Space" in FQDN of URL, it can be registered to monitor. It is useful to have a function to check the syntax when registering.13 votesThank you for the feedback, we will share this feedback to our team and also this feedback is now open for the user community to upvote & comment on.

Make data retention period configurable by data type / event content
For now data retention period is fixed to 90 days and can't be changed.
In reality telemetry events have different values and should be stored accordingly.
For example I'm interested in storing exception data only for a day or two, just to raise alerts. Trace records are needed to diagnose particular behavior\ reproduce a bug, so they should be kept just for the time I need to get this job done.
On the contrary user related events, like purchases, logins, specific actions are very valuable and should be stored for years.
These retention rules are unique to each business, so…13 votesThank you for the feedback on this feature. This is on the backlog, but not on plan for a specific delivery time yet.
