Enable Live metrics stream for Azure Application Insights

I'm monitoring an on-prem IIS web app using Azure application insights, but when I check Live metrics stream, I can note that it does not work as shown in the following figure

As a result, I tried to install Microsoft.ApplicationInsights nugget using the following PowerShell Cmdlet:

Install-Package Microsoft.ApplicationInsights -Version 2.7.1

But unfortunately, it does not work and I get the following error:

Install-Package : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Version'.

Considering that the version already exists and I've tried it with other versions.

If live metrics does not work installing Microsoft.ApplicationInsights won't help. LiveMetrics is part of PerfCounterCollector package. Btw - can you re-paste the screenshot as nothing is seen here. – cijothomas
Done. Please, recheck the post – Krank

Maybe you are behind a firewall or proxy. Add the following to your .config:

  <system.net>
    <defaultProxy useDefaultCredentials="true">
      <proxy usesystemdefault="True" autoDetect="True" proxyaddress="http://ip.address.of.your.proxy" />
    </defaultProxy>
  </system.net>

Please check you have an entry in ApplicationInsights.config for:

<Add Type="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.PerfCounterCollector.QuickPulse.QuickPulseTelemetryModule, Microsoft.AI.PerfCounterCollector"/>

in the <TelemetryModules> node.

and

<Add Type="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.PerfCounterCollector.QuickPulse.QuickPulseTelemetryProcessor, Microsoft.AI.PerfCounterCollector"/>

in <TelemetryProcessors> node.

Install Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.AspNetCore package in your application and you should be able to see the AppInsights in Live Metrics Stream.
