  • BASE: Method Sanitize on classes implementing ITelemetry no longer modifies the TelemetryContext fields. Serialized event json and ETW event will still have context tags sanitized.
  • BASE: Application Insights SDK supports multiple telemetry sinks. You can configure more than one channel for telemetry now.
  • BASE: New method DeepClone on ITelemetry interface. Implemented by all supported telemetry items.
  • BASE: Server telemetry channel NuGet support a netstandard1.3 target with fixed rate sampling and adaptive sampling telemetry processors.
  • BASE: Instrumentation key is no longer required for TelemetryClient to send data to channel(s). This makes it easier to use the SDK with channels other than native Application Insights channels.
  • BASE: .NET 4.0 targets were removed. Please use the version 2.4.0 if you cannot upgrade your application to the latest framework version.
  • BASE: Removed wp8, portable-win81+wpa81 and uap10.0 targets.

Version 2.4.0

  • BASE: Updated version of DiagnosticSource to 4.4.0 stable

Version 2.4.0-beta5

  • BASE: Updated version of DiagnosticSource referenced.

Version 2.4.0-beta4

  • BASE: Made Metric class private and fixed various metrics related issues.

Version 2.4.0-beta3

Version 2.4.0-beta2

  • BASE: Removed metric aggregation functionality as there is not enough feedback on the API surface yet.

Version 2.4.0-beta1

  • BASE: Event telemetry is set to be sampled separately from all other telemetry types. It potentially can double the bill. The reason for this change is that Events are mostly used for usage analysis and should not be subject to sampling on high load of requests and dependencies. Edit ApplicationInsights.config file to revert to the previous behavior.
  • BASE: Added dependency on System.Diagnostics.DiagnosticsSource package. It is still possible to use standalone Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll to track telemetry.
  • BASE: StartOperation starts a new System.Diagnostics.Activity and stores operation context in it. StartOperation overwrites OperationTelemetry.Id set before or during telemetry initialization for the dependency correlation purposes.
  • BASE: OperationCorrelationTelemetryInitializer initializes telemetry from the Activity.Current. Please refer to https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/blob/master/src/System.Diagnostics.DiagnosticSource/src/ActivityUserGuide.md for more details about Activity and how to use it
  • BASE: Request.Success field will not be populated based on ResponseCode. It needs to be set explicitly.
  • BASE: New "ProblemId" property on ExceptionTelemetry. It can be used to set a custom ProblemId value.
  • BASE: Metric Aggregation functionality (originally added in 2.3.0-beta1 but removed in 2.3.0) is re-introduced.
  • BASE: Improved exception stack trace data collection for .NET Core applications.

Version 2.3.0

Version 2.3.0-beta3

Version 2.3.0-beta2

  • BASE: Added constructor overloads for TelemetryConfiguration and added creation of a default InMemoryChannel when no channel is specified for a new instance. TelemetryClient will no longer create an InMemoryChannel on the configuration instance if TelemetryChannel is null, instead the configuration instances will always have a channel when created.
  • BASE: TelemetryConfiguration will no longer dispose of user provided ITelemetryChannel instances. Users must properly dispose of any channel instances which they create, the configuration will only auto-dispose of default channel instances it creates when none are specified by the user.

Version 2.3.0-beta1

  • BASE: Added metric aggregation functionality via MetricManager and Metric classes.
  • BASE: Exposed a source field on RequestTelemetry. This can be used to store a representation of the component that issued the incoming http request.

Version 2.2.0

  • BASE: Includes all changes since 2.1.0 stable release.

Version 2.2.0-beta6

Version 2.2.0-beta5

  • BASE: RoleInstance and NodeName are initialized with the machine name by default.

Version 2.2.0-beta3

  • BASE: Read InstrumentationKey from environment variable APPINSIGHTS_INSTRUMENTATIONKEY if it is was not provided inline. If provided it overrides what is set though configuration file. (Feature is not available in PCL version of SDK).
  • BASE: Context properties NetworkType, ScreenResolution and Language marked as obsolete. Please use custom properties to report network type, screen resolution and language. Values stored in these properties will be send as custom properties.
  • BASE: Dependency type was updated to reflect the latest developments in Application Insights Application Map feature. You can set a new field - Target. CommandName was renamed to Data for consistency with the Application Analytics schema. DependencyKind will never be send any more and will not be set to "Other" by default. Also there are two more constructors for DependencyTelemetry item.
  • BASE: Type SessionStateTelemetry was marked obsolete. Use IsFirst flag in SessionContext to indicate that the session is just started.
  • BASE: Type PerformanceCounterTelemetry was marked obsolete. Use MetricTelemetry instead.
  • BASE: Marked RequestTelemetry.HttpMethod as obsolete. Put http verb as part of the name for the better grouping by name and use custom properties to report http verb as a dimension.
  • BASE: Marked RequestTelemetry.StartTime as obsolete. Use TimeStamp instead.
  • BASE: Removed BCL dependency
  • BASE: Added IPv6 support
  • BASE: Fixed an issue where channels sent expired data from storage
  • BASE: Fixed an issue where the clock implementation would accumulate error
  • BASE: Fixed an issue where telemetry with emptry properties would be dropped
  • BASE: Added support for SDK-side throttling

Version 2.2.0-beta2

  • BASE: InMemoryChannel has a new override for Flush method that accepts timeout.
  • BASE: Local storage folder name was changed. That means that when the application stopped, and the application was updated to the new SDK, then the telemetry from the old local folder will not be send.
  • BASE: Allow all characters in property names and measurements names.
  • BASE: AdaptiveTelemetryProcessor has a new property IncludedTypes. It gets or sets a semicolon separated list of telemetry types that should be sampled. If left empty all types are included implicitly. Types are not included if they are set in ExcludedTypes.
  • BASE: Richpayload event source event is generated for all framework versions of SDK (before it was supported in 4.6 only)
  • BASE: TelemetryClient has a new method TrackAvailability. Data posted using this method would be available in AppAnalitics only, Azure portal UI is not available at this moment.

Version 2.2.0-beta1

  • BASE: Add ExceptionTelemetry.Message property. If it is provided it is used instead of Exception.Message property for the outer-most exception.
  • BASE: Telemetry types can be excluded from sampling by specifing ExcludedTypes property.
  • BASE: ServerTelemetryChannel: changed backoff logic to be less aggressive, added diagnostics event when backoff logic kicks in and added more tracing. (Done to address issues when data stops flowing till application gets restarted)

Version 2.1.0-beta4

Version 2.1.0-beta3

  • BASE: Support partial success (206) from the Application Insights backend. Before this change SDK may have lost data because some items of the batch were accepted and some items of the batch were asked to be retried (because of burst throttling or intermittent issues).
  • BASE: Bug fixes

Version 2.0.0

  • BASE: Disallow Nan, +-Infinity measurements. Value will be replaced on 0.
  • BASE: Disallow Nan, +-Infinity metrics (Value, Min, Max and StandardDeviation). Values will be replaced on 0.

Version 2.0.0-rc1

  • BASE: Writing telemetry items to debug output can be disabled with IsTracingDisabled property on TelemetryDebugWriter. Telemetry items that were filtered out by sampling are now indicated in debug output. Custom telemetry processors can now invoke method WriteTelemetry on TelemetryDebugWriter with filteredBy parameter to indicate in debug output that an item is being filtered out.
  • BASE: DependencyTelemetry.Async property was removed.
  • BASE: DependencyTelemetry.Count property was removed.
  • BASE: When configuration is loaded from ApplicationInsights.config incorrect and broken elements are skipped. That includes both high level elements like TelemetryInitializers as well as individual properties.

Version 2.0.0-beta4

  • BASE: UseSampling and UseAdaptiveSampling extensions were moved to Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility
  • BASE: Cut Phone and Store support
  • BASE: Updated DependencyTelemetry to have new properties ResultCode and Id
  • BASE: If ServerTelemetryChannel is initialized programmatically it is required to call ServerTelemetryChannel.Initialize() method. Otherwise persistent storage will not be initialized (that means that if telemetry cannot be sent because of temporary connectivity issues it will be dropped).
  • BASE: ServerTelemetryChannel has new property StorageFolder that can be set either through code or though configuration. If this property is set ApplicationInsights uses provided location to store telemetry that was not sent because of temporary connectivity issues. If property is not set or provided folder is inaccessible ApplicationInsights will try to use LocalAppData or Temp as it was done before.
  • BASE: TelemetryConfiguration.GetTelemetryProcessorChainBuilder extension method is removed. Instead of this method use TelemetryConfiguration.TelemetryProcessorChainBuilder instance method.
  • BASE: TelemetryConfiguration has a new property TelemetryProcessors that gives readonly access to TelemetryProcessors collection.

Version 1.2

  • BASE: First version shipped from github

Version 1.1

  • BASE: SDK now introduces new telemetry type DependencyTelemetry which contains information about dependency call from application
  • BASE: New method TelemetryClient.TrackDependency allows to send information about dependency calls from application

Version 0.17

  • BASE: Application Insights now distributes separate binaries for framework 4.0 and 4.5. Library for the framework 4.5 will not require EventSource and BCL nuget dependencies. You need to ensure you refer the correct library in packages.config. It should be <package id="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights" version="0.17.*" targetFramework="net45" />
  • BASE: Diagnostics telemetry module is not registered in ApplicationInsights.config and no self-diagnostics messages will be sent to portal for non-web applications. Insert <Add Type="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.Implementation.Tracing.DiagnosticsTelemetryModule, Microsoft.ApplicationInsights" /> to <TelemetryModules> node to get SDK self-diagnostics messages from your application.
  • BASE: ApplicationInsights.config file search order was changed. File from the bin/ folder will no longer be used even if exists for the web applications.

Version 2.0.0

  • WEB: Performance counter collection is no longer supported when running under IIS Express.

Version 2.0.0-rc1

Dependencies:

  • WEB: Http dependency success is determined on the base of http status code. Before it was true if there was no exception. But when one uses HttpClient there is no exceptions so all dependencies were marked as successful. Also in case if response is not available status code was set to -1. Now now status code will be reported.

Version 2.0.0-beta4

Web:

  • WEB: WebApps AlwaysOn requests with ResponseCode less than 400 will be filtered out.
  • WEB: User agent and request handler filters can be configured. Previous behavior filtered out only a default set of request handlers and user agent strings, now custom filters can be added to the ApplicationInsights.config file through the TelemetryProcessors section. Telemetry for requests with HttpContext.Current that matches these filters will not be sent.
  • WEB: If multiple simultaneous calls are made on a SqlCommand object, only one dependency is recorded. The second call will be failed immediately by SqlCommand and will not be recorded as a dependency.

Version 2.0.0-beta3

Web:

Version 2.0.0-beta2

Web:

  • WEB: RequestTelemetry.Name is not initialized any longer. RequestTelemetry.Context.Operaiton.Name will be used instead.
  • WEB: Response code 401 is part of the normal authentication handshake and will result in a succesfull request.

WindowsServer

  • WEB: Added Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer.TelemetryChannel.ITelemetryProcessor and fixed-rate Sampling support as an implementation of it.
  • WEB: Added Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer.TelemetryChannel.TelemetryChannelBuilder that allows creation of a Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer.TelemetryChannel.ServerTelemetryChannel with a set of Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer.TelemetryChannel.ITelemetryProcessor.

Version 1.2.0

Web:

  • WEB: Telemetry initializers that do not have dependencies on ASP.NET libraries were moved to the new dependency nuget "Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer"
  • WEB: Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Web.dll was renamed on Microsoft.AI.Web.dll
  • WEB: Microsoft.Web.TelemetryChannel nuget was renamed on Microsoft.WindowsServer.TelemetryChannel. TelemetryChannel assembly was also renamed.

Version 1.0.0

Web:

  • WEB: Moved telemetry initializers and telemetry modules from separate sub-namespaces to the root Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.Web namespace.
  • WEB: Removed "Web" prefix from names of telemetry initializers and telemetry modules because it is already included in the Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.Web namespace name.
  • WEB: Moved DeviceContextInitializer from the Microsoft.ApplicationInsights assembly to the Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.Web assembly and converted it to an ITelemetryInitializer.

Dependencies:

  • WEB: Change namespace and assembly names from Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.RuntimeTelemetry to Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.DependencyCollector for consistency with the name of the NuGet package.
  • WEB: Rename RemoteDependencyModule to DependencyTrackingTelemetryModule.

  • WEB: Persistence channel optimized for high-load scenarios is used for web SDK. "Spiral of death" issue fixed. Spiral of death is a condition when spike in telemetry items count that greatly exceeds throttling limit on endpoint will lead to retry after certain time and will be throttled during retry again.
  • WEB: Developer Mode is optimized for production. If left by mistake it will not cause as big overhead as before attempting to output additional information.
  • WEB: Developer Mode by default will only be enabled when application is under debugger. You can override it using DeveloperMode property of ITelemetryChannel interface.
