Services Hub Connector - Features (Unified)

Services Hub Connector is an Azure resource that brings Services Hub On-Demand Assessment functionality directly to our Unified/Premier audience that works primarily in the Azure ecosystem. You can start and continue your On-Demand Assessment experience in Azure, reducing complexity, all without leaving the Azure ecosystem to accomplish your proactive needs.

Access Services Hub

From the Services Hub Connector, you can always get to your Services Hub. On the Services Hub Connector, select Overview on the left navigation, select Go to Services Hub on the top navigation, and a new tab opens.

The Services Hub Connector window. Overview is selected on the left navigation. Go to Services Hub is selected on the top navigation.

Note

See documentation on how to create your Services Hub Connector.

Manage Connections

When you are in the Services Hub Connector, you're now able to connect to multiple Log Analytics workspaces without the need for multiple Services Hub – as is the current Services Hub experience. You'll be able to manage your roles and permissions in Azure and Log Analytics so that different groups won't see each other’s data if needed.

On the Services Hub Connector, select On-Demand Assessments on the left navigation and then select Manage Connections on the top navigation.

The Services Hub Connector window. Manage connections is selected on the top navigation.

Select Add to add your desired Log Analytics workspace.

The Manage Log Analytics Connections window. Add is selected.

Now you're able to connect multiple Log Analytics workspaces in the Services Hub Connector experience. After adding your first Log Analytics workspace, select Add again to add your next Log Analytics workspace.

The Manage Log Analytics Connections window. Add is selected.

Then you'll see all of your Log Analytics workspaces that you added.

The Existing Connections that have been added.

Now that you have connected multiple Log Analytics workspaces, on the On-Demand Assessment page select Log Analytics Workspace dropdown and select the Log Analytics workspace name that you want to view and the tiles change to the new workspace data.

The On-Demand Assessment window. The dropdown is selected on the menu panel showing the Log Analytics workspace names.

Note

If you do not have access to the Log Analytics workspace that you choose, you will see an error on the page that you do not have access.

Note

If you don’t know the Azure owner, other roles of your Azure subscriptions, or Log Analytics workspaces, see Role assignments in Azure Subscriptions to find out who you can contact in your organization for permission to see that data.

You're also able to remove any Log Analytic workspaces from the Services Hub Connector. On the Services Hub Connector, select On-Demand Assessments on the left navigation and then select Manage Connections on the top navigation.

Then select the checkbox of the Log Analytics workspaces that you would like to remove, then select Remove. You'll no longer see that Log Analytics workspace in your dropdown box of Log Analytics workspaces.

The Manage Log Analytics Connections window. The box for the Existing connection to be removed is checked and Remove are selected.

Add On-Demand Assessments

Now that you've connected your Log Analytics workspace(s), when you are in the Services Hub Connector you're now able to “Add” multiple On-Demand Assessments at one time instead of individually as in the Services Hub experience.

On the Services Hub Connector, select On-Demand Assessments on the left navigation and then select Add Assessments on the top navigation.

The Log Analytics Workspace window.

You now have the ability to Select All and add all On-Demand Assessments at once or specifically check the boxes for the On-Demand Assessments that you want to add at once.

The Add Assessments window with boxes checked to add On-Demand Assessments.

Note

Adding a new Assessment will start the new AMA experience as described in the On-Demand Assessment Setup document

Now you'll see all of your newly added On-Demand Assessment tiles on the On-Demand Assessment blade for you and your team to configure and start seeing your proactive data.

On the Services Hub Connector, select On-Demand Assessments on the left navigation and then select any report from your configured On-Demand Assessments that have data. This report downloads for your use.
