  • You can then edit the integration to make any changes needed.
  • You can also toggle the Integration on/off at any time from here as well. Disabling the integration will stop new data from being sent to the webhook.

Verifying things are working​

There are couple of ways to verify that data is getting transferred. The simplest approach is to look at the Event Hub dashboard's charts - specifically the "Messages" graph and filtering by messages sum. You may also configure a "Capture" event to save data into Azure cloud based file storage.
