# Azure Event Grid source plugin

export const entity_0 = "Azure Event Grid source plugin"

export const plugin_0 = "Azure Event Grid source plugin"

The Azure Event Grid [source plugin](/ingest/pipeline/plugins/source-plugins)
(name: `azeventgrid`) lets you receive data from Azure and ingest it into a
telemetry pipeline using the [pull delivery](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/event-grid/pull-delivery-overview)
API.

This is a [pull-based](/ingest/pipeline/plugins/source-plugins#push-based-and-pull-based-source-plugins) source plugin.

<Note>
  This plugin doesn't support the use of a
  [descriptive metadata name](/ingest/pipeline/plugins#descriptive-names) in the
  Pipeline Builder interface.
</Note>

<Note>
  This plugin doesn't support duplicates of itself within the same pipeline.
</Note>

## Supported telemetry types

The {plugin_0} for Chronosphere Telemetry Pipeline supports these telemetry types:

|                    Logs                    |             Metrics             |              Traces             |
| :----------------------------------------: | :-----------------------------: | :-----------------------------: |
| <Icon icon="circle-check" color="green" /> | <Icon icon="ban" color="red" /> | <Icon icon="ban" color="red" /> |

## Configuration parameters

Use the parameters in this section to configure the {entity_0}. The
Telemetry Pipeline web interface uses the items in the **Name** column to
describe these parameters. [Pipeline configuration files](/ingest/pipeline/v2/configure/config-files)
use the items in the **Key** column as YAML keys.

### General

Sets a limit for how much buffered data the plugin can write to memory, which affects [backpressure](/ingest/pipeline/v2/configure/backpressure). This value must follow Fluent Bit's rules for [unit sizes](https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/administration/configuring-fluent-bit#unit-sizes). If unspecified, no limit is enforced. | *none*  |
