Which Python frameworks are supported for auto-instrumentation?

It automatically supports major libraries including Flask, Django, FastAPI, Requests, httpx, aiohttp, and several database drivers like psycopg2 and pymongo.

Does this support Azure Active Directory authentication?

Yes, you can pass a DefaultAzureCredential from the azure-identity package to the configuration function to use AAD instead of connection strings.

Can I control the amount of data sent to Azure to manage costs?

Yes, the skill provides patterns for setting a sampling_ratio (from 0.0 to 1.0) to control the volume of telemetry data ingested into Application Insights.

How do I start using this skill with my Python app?

Simply call the configure_azure_monitor() function at the beginning of your application entry point to enable auto-instrumentation for supported libraries.
