Monitoring URL links
hspintoI had a look at the article, I would like to clarify one thing, the article is mentioning this
Create a URL ping test
To create your first availability request, open the Availability pane and select Create Test.
Once, I will create the availability test for the specified website, under application insights, will I get an alert via email, if the HTTP is unavailable for the specified website.

as I mentioned earlier, after creating the Availability Test, you'll have to set up the alert to execute the required action, e.g., sending you an e-mail.
Once the test is created, you can use the context menu to configure the alert rule.
In the alert configuration blade, you'll have to create an action group to send you an e-mail whenever the alert fires/resolves. More details here.
hspintoone more question, to ask you, can I add multiple websites under one available test or I need to create individual available test for individual websites.

Arslan11, you will have a ping test per URL (you can't have multiple URLs in a single ping test). However, if the multiple URLs you are testing are part of a specific application flow you want to validate, ensuring the full flow is responding correctly, then you should consider multi-step web tests instead. Multi-step web tests are more expensive. See pricing here.
I did , that but I am afraid it didn't work.
I added a website to availability test
The website url link is not being monitored, the website was not loading today and I didn't got analert.
I did create an alert, to send any an email to the team, if HTTP is not responding.
Email didn't got send.
