I am trying to log from a FastAPI application to Azure application insights. It is working with a connection string, but I would like it to be working with managed identity. The code below does not fail - no errors or anything. But it does not log anything. Any suggestions to sove the problem, or how to troubleshoot as I get no errors: from fastapi import FastAPI,Request from fastapi.middleware.cors import CORSMiddleware from fastapi_azure_auth import SingleTenantAzureAuthorizationCodeBearer import uvicorn from fastapi import FastAPI, Security import os from typing import Dict from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential import logging from azure.monitor.opentelemetry import configure_azure_monitor from opentelemetry import trace,metrics from settings import Settings from pydantic import AnyHttpUrl,BaseModel from contextlib import asynccontextmanager from typing import AsyncGenerator from fastapi_azure_auth.user import User settings = Settings() @asynccontextmanager async def lifespan(app: FastAPI) -> AsyncGenerator[None, None]: """ Load OpenID config on startup. """ await azure_scheme.openid_config.load_config() yield app = FastAPI( swagger_ui_oauth2_redirect_url='/oauth2-redirect', swagger_ui_init_oauth={ 'usePkceWithAuthorizationCodeGrant': True, 'clientId': settings.OPENAPI_CLIENT_ID, 'scopes': settings.SCOPE_NAME, }, ) if settings.BACKEND_CORS_ORIGINS: app.add_middleware( CORSMiddleware, allow_origins=[str(origin) for origin in settings.BACKEND_CORS_ORIGINS], allow_credentials=True, allow_methods=['*'], allow_headers=['*'], ) azure_scheme = SingleTenantAzureAuthorizationCodeBearer( app_client_id=settings.APP_CLIENT_ID, tenant_id=settings.TENANT_ID, scopes=settings.SCOPES, ) class User(BaseModel): name: str roles: list[str] = [] logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) logger.setLevel(logging.INFO) credential = DefaultAzureCredential() configure_azure_monitor( credential=credential, connection_string="InstrumentationKey=xx-xx-xx-xx-xx" ) @app.get("/log", dependencies=[Security(azure_scheme)]) async def root(): print("Yo test") logger.info("Segato5", extra={"custom_dimension": "Kam_value","test1": "val1"}) meter = metrics.get_meter_provider().get_meter(__name__) counter = meter.create_counter("segato2") counter.add(8) return {"whoIsTheBest": "!!"} if __name__ == '__main__': uvicorn.run('main:app', reload=True) 
 Yes, you can use managed identity but you can need to use connection string along with it too as its a mandatory parameter.  Also, to use managed identity, you need to deploy your code to any Azure resource such as Function app or Web App.  I have deployed below code to web app and then enabled system managed identity in it. I have granted Monitoring Metrics Publisher RBAC role to my Web App in Application Insight.    from fastapi import FastAPI import logging import uvicorn from azure.identity import ManagedIdentityCredential from azure.monitor.opentelemetry import configure_azure_monitor from opentelemetry import metrics from opentelemetry.instrumentation.fastapi import FastAPIInstrumentor app = FastAPI() logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) logger.setLevel(logging.INFO) credential = ManagedIdentityCredential() configure_azure_monitor( connection_string="InstrumentationKey=06a13******8b029b9", credential=credential ) FastAPIInstrumentor().instrument_app(app) @app.get("/log") async def root(): print("Yo test") logger.info("Segato5", extra={"custom_dimension": "Kam_value","test1": "val1"}) meter = metrics.get_meter_provider().get_meter(__name__) counter = meter.create_counter("segato2") counter.add(8) return {"whoIsTheBest": "!!"} if __name__ == '__main__': uvicorn.run('main:app', reload=True)   Add gunicorn -w 2 -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker -b 0.0.0.0:8000 main:app in Configuration.    I am able to get the logs in Application insight.     Thanks AnuragSingh-MSFT for clarifying the use of managed identity and connection string in this question.
