Add/Remove Resource Groups

In the table, you will find all Resource Groups that exist within the Azure Subscription. A Service Bus Namespace resides within a Resource Group.

You can add or remove Resource Groups by checking or unchecking the corresponding checkbox. If you have added a Resource Group that no longer exists, the corresponding Resource will be marked as 'Unavailable'. This is visually indicated in the table with a grey background color for the missing Resource Group.

Here is a list of Resource Groups currently included in the monitoring, as seen in a self-service enabled Nodinite Monitor View.

Note
If a Resource Group is missing from the Azure Subscription, it may have been removed, or the current App Registration (Client ID) may not have sufficient access rights. To ensure least privilege access, please review the Azure Access page in the least privileges section of the user guide.

Click the Save button to persist changes.

Persist changes by clicking the Save button.

Resource Group

Tip
You can manage resource groups from within the Details page of the Azure Subscription. This is the recommended way to manage Resource Groups in the Nodinite Message Queueing Monitoring Agent. NOTE: You must initially add at least one Resource Group using the Remote Configuration.
