Herald.Sinks.AzureAnalytics

Writes Herald log events to Azure Log Analytics / Azure Monitor via the HTTP Data Collector API. Drop-in for Serilog.Sinks.AzureAnalytics. Pure HTTP — no Azure SDK dependency. HMAC-SHA256 signing per Data Collector API spec.

Part of Herald — high-performance structured logging for .NET 8, 9, and 10.

Install

dotnet add package Herald.Sinks.AzureAnalytics

The sink auto-registers into LogSinkProviderRegistry.Default via a [ModuleInitializer] on assembly load. No manual RegisterAll(...) or With*SinkProviders() call is required — dotnet add package is the whole workflow.

Sink kind: azure_analytics (the identifier the Dashboard form and JSON config use to reference this sink).

Capabilities

  • Data Collector API with HMAC-SHA256 request signing
  • No Azure SDK dependency — pure BCL HTTP + cryptography
  • Properties flattened to prop_<Name> columns for Log Analytics query compatibility
  • Batched POST per IBatchedLogSink
  • time-generated-field header set to event timestamp for correct Kusto time filtering

Limitations

  • Data Collector is Azure's legacy ingest surface; Log Ingestion API is the modern path (follow-up feature)
  • No structured jsonPayload support — properties flatten to columns
  • Key rotation requires sink reconstruction
  • Synchronous Send — pair with async decorator for heavy volume

Tier & runtime

  • Edition: Community — works on the free Apache 2.0 Herald.Core. No license key required.
  • AOT-compatible: yes
  • Targets: .NET 8 / 9 / 10
  • Thread safety: Thread-safe — HttpClient and HMACSHA256 signing are thread-safe.

Configuration

Per-sink config form lives in configuration*.mmpform at the package root and inside the assembly as an embedded resource. The Herald Dashboard renders it at runtime; JSON config follows the same shape. See CAPABILITY.yaml shipped at the package root for the full manifest (schema reference: CAPABILITY-SCHEMA.md).
