Azure DevOps Health

API

REST API for monitoring Azure resource health impacting DevOps workflows

Overview

The Azure DevOps Health API (part of Azure Resource Health) provides RESTful endpoints to access real-time and historical health status of Azure resources. It helps diagnose issues affecting CI/CD pipelines by delivering details like resource availability (available, degraded, unavailable), root cause insights, and recommended fixes. Responses are in JSON format. Use cases include integrating health checks into continuous integration pipelines to trigger alerts on resource failures, automating diagnostic reports for DevOps-related Azure resources, and ensuring uptime of critical CI/CD infrastructure components.
