Real-time monitoring in Azure Front Door

You can also configure alerts for each metric such as a threshold for 4XXErrorRate or 5XXErrorRate. When the error rate exceeds the threshold, it triggers an alert as configured. For more information, see Create, view, and manage metric alerts using Azure Monitor.
