Can I log to App Insights from Powershell (maybe via log4net)?

Is it possible to log to Application Insights from Powershell?

I have the log4net logging set up in Powershell already, and that is working. I also have demonstrated logging to Application Insights from a simple .Net console app using the log4net appender.

Is it a matter of grabbing the App Insights assemblies and placing them somewhere local to the Powershell script? I'm just not sure what to try next.

Any ideas?

This should be possible, the same way as you call any .NET assembly / c# code from powershell. All you need is the "core" app insights assembly/assemblies from the core nuget package, and then use TelemetryClient.TrackEvent etc as normal.
