title: Difference between application insights application types
body: <p>I'm using application insights for my ASP.NET website. Recently I've added several web jobs and I found that there is an ability to configure app insights integration with them. webjobs SDK documentation is saying that I need to have my Application type set to "General" in App Insights: <a href="https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk/wiki/Application-Insights-Integration" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk/wiki/Application-Insights-Integration</a>. Currently it is set to 'ASP.NET'.
  I have 2 questions here:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>What will be changed in my app insights after changing application type to 'General'. Could not google for anything related.</li>
  <li>Is there any way to change app type instead of recreating app insights instance?</li>
  </ul>
