+
+## Backend call failing
+
+SimpleChat uses flask instrumentation by default and backend calls are logged to Application Insights.  Query the 'requests' table to find the failing call and note the 'operation_Id'.  Use the operation ID to find associated exceptions like below.
+
+### Query failed requests
+
+```
+requests
+| where success == false
+```
+
+### Query most recent exceptions
+
+```
+exceptions
+| top 10 by timestamp
+```
+
+### Query exceptions associated with a specific operation_Id
+
+```
+exceptions
+| where operation_Id == '61a97b6a6ddc11b465b5289738bddcf1'
+```
+
+## Flask Instrumentation Startup Error
+
+If startup logs show an error initializing Flask Instrumentation it can be disabled using environment variable DISABLE_FLASK_INSTRUMENTATION.  Set it to '1' or 'true' to disable flask instrumentation. **REQUIRES APP RESTART**.
