Http endpoint for IOT hub resource

How to get the http endpoint of an iot hub in azure. I need to build a solution to ping the http url to test whether iot hub is active or down. Similar to availability check.

So you can create an Azure Function or whatever you favor, to invoke this REST API to obtain the status. Example response will be like this 

{
  "totalDeviceCount": 0,
  "enabledDeviceCount": 0,
  "disabledDeviceCount": 0
}

To Authenticate against AZURE API you need to obtain the BEARER token first. Example :

private const string Resource = "https://management.azure.com/";
string authority = $"https://login.windows.net/"TenantId";
var authContext = new AuthenticationContext(authority);
var credential = new ClientCredential("ClientId", "ClientSecret");
var authResult = authContext.AcquireTokenAsync(Resource, credential).Result;
var httpClient = new HttpClient();

Now when you call any azure resource api, pass the bearer token along

httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Authorization", "Bearer " + authResult.AccessToken);
