title: Azure function verbose trace logging to Application Insights
body: <p>I have an Azure function that's connected to an App Insights instance. The function app emits log messages which I can see in the log stream in the Azure portal, and as App Insights traces.</p>
  
  <p>I've increased the console log level to Verbose by adding a <code>"tracing"</code> element to <code>host.json</code> (<a href="https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk-script/wiki/host.json" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk-script/wiki/host.json</a>), so Verbose level messages show up in the log stream (in both the function page in the Azure portal, and in Kudu), but I can't get Verbose level traces to appear in App Insights.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know how to get App Insights to show Verbose level traces from an Azure Function? Is it even possible? (Info traces and above are showing up just fine in App Insights)</p>
