Azure AI for an API Platform
We are managing an API Platform in our company. We collect metrics in ELK (deployed on premise) and We have a Confluence WIKI page with our public documentation. We would like to have a Chatbot that can be trained by structured (JSON, CSV) Metrics (Prometheus) stored in ELK and by trained by the unstructured content in our WIKI page. The Chatbot should be able to answer questions like: (Source: WIKI page) - How can I publish an API with mTLS enabled - How can I authorize a client certificate for my API - How can I specify the RPS for my API - and so on and so forth (Source: ELK) - Plot the request of the API "XX" for the last month - Can you predict the API calls trend of the next month for the API "XXX" - Give me a list of the client IP that accessed the API "YYY" yesterday - and so on and so forth In the future We may want the chat bot to be able to do some basic automatic actions like (contacting our self-service API): - Allow this client certificate to access this API - Change the RPS for the API ZZZ to 10 rps/s - and so on and so forth - What Azure AI Services would you recommend to start looking into? Which AI models? Which Azure resource? - How can we train and feed the model from ELK? do we have to export the data from ELK daily and store it in an Azure Storage account or we can instruct the specific Azure AI Service to connect to our ELK endpoint (or a proxy API) to fetch the data? Thank you
Implementing Azure ADConnect in a live environment
I have been tasked with implementing Azure ADConnect for my company. We currently have 2 locally virtualized domain controllers and are already utilizing Office365 for mail. What would be the easiest way to implement ADConnect while having the least amount of downtime/user interruptions.Troubleshooting Azure Function App Proxy with Private Blob Container Access for Static Web App
Recently, I shared a problem I’m facing in my testing environment with a friend. I’ve decided to bring this issue to an open forum discussion to gather additional insights. I hope you can help me figure out what might be missing in my configuration. **Context:** I’m trying to replicate a solution in my test environment but encountering difficulties in a specific scenario. **Scenario:** I have a Function App acting as a proxy for a Static Web App hosted in a Blob Container. This Blob Container is set to private access, meaning public access is disabled. **The Problem:** The goal is for my Function App to authorize users and direct them correctly to the Static Web App. However, it’s not working as expected. **What I’ve tried so far:** 1. Configured Managed Identity for the Function App and granted the necessary permissions to the Blob Container. 2. Properly set up authentication and created the App Registration, which works flawlessly. 3. Verified that the proxy functions correctly when the Blob Container’s public access is enabled. **Current behavior:** - When public access to the Blob Container is enabled, everything works fine. - When public access is disabled, even with the proxy configured, access fails, and an error message "resource not found" is returned. **My questions are:** 1. Do I need to configure something additional in the proxy definition file? 2. Is there a specific setting, like a private endpoint or something similar, that I should implement to resolve this issue? **Additional considerations:** I haven’t configured a private endpoint yet, but I’m considering whether this would be the most appropriate solution for my case. My initial expectation was that granting the necessary permissions to the Function App via Managed Identity would solve the issue, but it hasn’t. I appreciate any guidance or suggestions you can provide!
Azure support team not responding to support request
I am posting here because I have not received a response to my support request despite my plan stating that I should hear back within 8 hours. It has now gone a day beyond that limit, and I am still waiting for assistance with this urgent matter. This issue is critical for my operations, and the delay is unacceptable. The ticket/reference number for my original support request was 2410100040000309. And I have created a brand new service request with ID 2412160040010160. I need this addressed immediately.Accidentially changed my admin user to a guest user ... and cannot access azure anymore
Hi, I did something stupid and now cannot access my azure anymore: 1. I wanted to integrate the MS TEams into my Google account 2. To do this, I had to create an account via Azure - i was told on different platforms 3. But since it's the same email address (***@gmail.com) - I couldn't invite myself as an internal user, (I already was one!) so ... I turned myself into a guest user and wanted to invite me again. Obviously, this did not work - and now I can not access azure anymore - Can someone help me how to restore my account? Here the error messages i got: { "sessionId": "448959718eec490b89d366bb329cecec", "errors": [ { "errorMessage": "interaction_required: AADSTS16000: User account '{EUII Hidden}' from identity provider 'live.com' does not exist in tenant 'Microsoft Services' and cannot access the application 'b677c290-cf4b-4a8e-a60e-91ba650a4abe'(AzurePortal Console App) in that tenant.

With large number of Blobs in Storage Account, the manual cleanup from the Portal is more complicated and time consuming, as it's per set of 10'000. This script is simple and and can be executed in background to clean all items from a defined Blob Container. You have to specify the Storage Account connection string and the blob container name. [string]$myConnectionString = "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=YourStorageAccountName;AccountKey=YourKeyFromStorageAccountConnectionString;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net" [string]$ContainerName = "YourBlobContainerName" [int]$blobCountAfter = 0 [int]$blobCountBefore = 0 $context = New-AzStorageContext -ConnectionString $myConnectionString $blobCountBefore = (Get-AzStorageBlob -Container $ContainerName -Context $context).Count Write-Host "Total number of blobs in the container Before deletion: $blobCount" -ForegroundColor Yellow Get-AzStorageBlob -Container $ContainerName -Context $context | ForEach-Object { $_ | Remove-AzureStorageBlob # or: Remove-AzureStorageBlob -ICloudBlob $_.ICloudBlob -Context $ctx } $blobCountAfter = (Get-AzStorageBlob -Container $ContainerName -Context $context).Count Write-Host "Total number of blobs in the container After deletion : $blobCount" -ForegroundColor Green It was used for large blob storage container with more than 5 millions of blob items.
