Azure - monitoring resources using REST APIs

I am new to Azure and have been going through various tutorials. I am looking specifically at Azure Monitoring using REST APIs.

What I am trying to do is get the status of various resources like Virtual Networks, AD, Load Balancers etc on a custom dashboard using REST APIs.

I have found some list of REST APIs that allow monitoring here(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/monitor/)

But do they provide Resource health and Status.Also, do i have a create a new Service API Managament Resource(which is a paid resource) in the Azure Account for these APIs to run?.

Please let me know if you have any insights or reference materials on this

I don't think rest API is good for monitoring. I will suggest use Azure Monitor service under that you can use Azure resource metrics, Activity logs and service health. based on these metrics and logs you can set alert and show live data on the dashboard.

We are using Microsoft OMS for live monitoring (visualization of data) and Email/SMS for notification.
