1. What happens to Azure monitor in Applications Manager when you delete any of the supported services from the Azure portal?
- When you perform a delete operation on any of the supported Azure resources in the Azure portal, the respective monitor will automatically be deleted in Applications Manager in the Azure parent monitor's next poll.
- Furthermore, an entry will be added in Audit logs upon deletion of Azure monitors in Applications Manager. You can check this under Admin -> Tools -> Audit logs -> choose Actions as 'Azure monitor deletion'.

- AD Application & Service Principal:
- You have to create an AD App & Service Principal and assign a role for the same in the Azure portal. This will enable you to obtain the Client ID and AppKey information which you can then use to add a monitor in Applications Manager. Refer the prerequisites to know more.
- Azure Organizational Account (Powershell):

- OAuth:
- You have to create an AD App & Service Principal, assign a role to the same and perform App registration in the Azure portal.
