Is there a way to inform Application Insights about route structure?

My .Net Framework Web API has a few endpoints, all structured in a similar way.

Endpoint1 - /User/{userId}/Resource1/{resourceId}/...
Endpoint2 - /User/{userId}/Resource2/{resourceId}/...

This pattern can be more sub-resources deep.

However, this turns out to be a bit problematic in the various tools in Application Insights. The errors blade show each operation by their individual URL. Not grouped by endpoint. I can easily see if /User/123/Resource1/abc/ is causing errors but it is difficult to tell if that particular endpoint is problematic. Makes sense?

Is there a way to inform Application Insights to be more smart in how it groups operations in the UI and the other tools?

You can use telemetry initializer to modify OperationName. In your case you can replace actual identifiers with "{userId}" and "{resourceId}"
