## Overview

[Azure Workbooks](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-monitor/visualize/workbooks-overview) provide a flexible canvas for data analysis and the creation of rich visual reports. You can use workbooks to tap into multiple data sources from across Azure and combine them into unified interactive experiences.

## Under Construction
Listed below are some examples of workbooks that you can use to visualize alerts and key metrics from Azure resources. These workbooks templates can be saved to your workbook gallery in Azure.

You can also find information below on [how to save workbook templates](#import-workbook-templates-quick-start-guide)

## Azure Monitor Community

The Azure Monitor Team utilizes [this](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureMonitorCommunity/tree/master/Azure%20Services) github repo to share workbooks for various azure services. Below are some workbooks to highlight alert management and ExpressRoute/network monitoring.

## [Alert Management Workbook](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureMonitorCommunity/blob/master/Azure%20Services/Azure%20Monitor/Workbooks/Alerts%20Management.workbook)

A summary of alerts by your filtered subscription. This workbook contains visualizations of alerts triggered by type, serverity and top 5 noisiest objects.![alert management](../../../static/img/alert-management-wb.png)

## [ExpressRoute Monitoring Workbook](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureMonitorCommunity/blob/master/Azure%20Services/Azure%20Monitor/Workbooks/Azure%20Network%20Monitoring.workbook)

This workbook addresses a common challenge to effectively visualize the health and availability of ExpressRoute components. This is an interactive workbook that provides comprehensive monitoring and troubleshooting for ExpressRoute, including the monitoring of key metrics such as: ExpressRoute Circuit Status, BGP availablity, total throughput, and more.
