Requirements
For the plugin to discover Load Balancers and query their metrics, it is recommended to use a Service Principal with read permissions.
- List Microsoft.Network/loadBalancers resources.
- Read backend pool configuration.
- Query Azure Monitor metrics associated with the resource.
In most environments, the Reader role over the subscription or over the resource group will be enough. If the permission is limited to a single resource group, it is also recommended to configure the Resource group field in the Discovery task.
