Add support for Application Insights in the managed portal

In hosted developer portal you do not see insights about end user interactions with the portal. And you do not want to use self-hosted developer portal just to enable this scenario.

Possible solutions:

• Add support for App Insights
• Add support for adding script elements to the head of the page (enables adding small js snippet to enable preferred monitoring solution)

In the last release, we added basic integration for App Insights, which currently logs just generic events. The next step will be emitting specific events across dev portal functionality.

Integration instructions can be found here: https://github.com/Azure/api-management-developer-portal/wiki/Integrate-Application-Insights

Oh sorry let me clarify this:

If you have n APIs then which of those are most interesting from the doc page point of view

By that I mean that if people are viewing different APIs the urls are something like this:

https://devportal/api-details#api=echo-api&operation=modify-resource

https://devportal/api-details#api=products&operation=get

So technically they are in the “same page” (api-details) but of course as provider of the APIs you would like to see how many have viewed the api=products.

If you would get these into App Insights you could create KQL queries and enable you to analyze this information. Hopefully this made more sense.
