title: Does the Azure WebJobs SDK support pushing TextWriter logs into App Insights?
body: <p>With the Azure WebJobs SDK, the process of adding logging to your functions is relatively straightforward: Add a TextWriter param to your triggered function, and write to it. That's it. </p>
  
  <p>The SDK will will then associate and display these logs with their execution instances in the WebJobs Dashboard, which provides a relatively data-rich, yet frictionless view into the operationalization of your webjobs. </p>
  
  <p>While this data is replicated into a user-accessible Azure Storage Blob Container, more custom code would be required to periodically push these logs to App Insights, which is undesirable. </p>
  
  <p>Looking for ideas or solutions for how to push all logs pushed via the injected TextWriter to be pushed to AppInsights (or OMS, for that matter), complete with the webjobs execution/trigger instance metadata, thereby allowing a unified consumption experience for various log analytics.</p>
  
  <p>Based on <a href="https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk/issues/895" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this Feature</a> being tracked in the WebJobs SDK, I'm assuming that for now this is not possible? A long while back I looked into trying to inject my own TextWriter instance, but I would've had to fork the WebJobs SDK and use my customized assembly that changed a lot of architecture. </p>
