Azure alert when Resource Health becomes unavailable or available

Does Azure provide any alert that simply tells me if my Virtual Network or any other resource health is Up(available) or Down(unavailable). I am not talking about Service Level health which is region specific. I am talking about resource level health. I looked at the list of alerts here and its not available.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/monitoring-and-diagnostics/monitoring-supported-metrics

I see a lot of Alerting options, but availability does not show up here

Thanks, this gives health details related to VM, i want health alert for all the resources, in the Azure Portal we can see a section called "Resource health", but can we create an Alert for this? – Pharaoh

This is for a region i need for a particular resource. – Pharaoh
If you are open to 3rd party products, look into CloudMonix @ cloudmonix.com -- this basic and many other advanced scenarios are available by default in its monitoring templates. Specifically, CloudMonix can alert on outage of any connections inside of an Azure VPN Gateway – Igorek

Please take a look at the activity logs which is on a subscription level. You can create alerts on resource types and on specific category of alerts (Alert, Service Health , Security , recommendations etc.)
