Microsoft Azure Developer Associate AZ-204 Practice Question
You are creating an Azure Monitor metric alert that is triggered when an Application Insights URL ping availability test fails from at least two test locations within a 5-minute window. The on-call engineer must receive an SMS notification each time the alert fires. Which change to the alert configuration guarantees that the text message is sent?
Add the engineer's phone number under the Notification settings of the Application Insights resource.
Attach an Azure Monitor action group that contains an SMS receiver to the metric alert and leave the action group enabled.
Convert the metric alert to a log alert that uses a KQL query against trackAvailability telemetry.
Select the Send SMS option on the Availability Test blade and save the test configuration.
Azure Monitor alerts do not send notifications directly; instead, they invoke one or more action groups. An action group can contain several receiver types, such as email, SMS, push, voice, ITSM, webhooks, or logic apps. By attaching an action group that includes an SMS receiver (the engineer's phone number) to the availability-based metric alert, the alert engine automatically places the SMS when the alert condition is met. Simply enabling an option on the availability test, editing Application Insights properties, or changing the alert type does not create the notification path-only an action group with the required receiver ensures delivery.
