Votes:

0

Hi,

I'm would like to monitor several Azure Service Bus Queues, do you have a sensor/method that can achieve this?

Hello,

Thanks for contacting us.

I understand that you would like to monitor Azure Service Bus Queues, correct?

If not mistaken the only native sensor we have for queue monitoring is this one: https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/windows_msmq_queue_length_sensor

Kind regards,

Miguel Aikens

I have seen that but unfortunately, it doesn't appear to work with an Azure Service Bus.

I have potentially got a workaround that should allow me to use a REST Custom sensor to get this information.

My Solution: I have created an Azure Function to get the Azure Service Bus information I want, I can then access this function via its URL which should allow me to return the message queue length and report it in PRTG.

I haven't actually tested the response with PRTG yet but I don't see why that won't work.

Would be nice to have a native sensor for this though.
