Azure Monitor does not provide native support for scraping arbitrary OpenMetrics endpoints. The recommended approach for integrating OpenMetrics-based data is to leverage the Azure Monitor managed service for Prometheus, which delivers a fully managed and scalable Prometheus environment. By deploying this service, organizations can collect metrics from Kubernetes clusters, virtual machines, or self-managed Prometheus instances. Since Prometheus inherently supports OpenMetrics exposition, this managed service offers the appropriate pathway for connecting and ingesting metrics from OpenMetrics endpoints.
