Indicates whether Application Insights can listen to CloudWatch events for the application resources, such as instance terminated , failed deployment , and others.

type OpsItemSNSTopicArn

string

param OpsItemSNSTopicArn

The SNS topic provided to Application Insights that is associated to the created opsItem. Allows you to receive notifications for updates to the opsItem.

type Tags

Each tag consists of a required tag key and an associated tag value , both of which you define. A tag key is a general label that acts as a category for a more specific tag value.
