Standard Business Central logs telemetry of each request from a mobile device as an incoming web service call, but with very limited details of each request.

They are all logged with the Event ID of RT0008 and details can be found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/administration/telemetry-webservices-trace

Recommendations to limit increased cost of telemetry

The cost of telemetry is determined on the volume of telemetry data your application sends (data ingestion) and how long time you want data to be available (data retention).

To avoid redundant information in Application Insights you can skip the generic successful incoming web service calls to Mobile WMS and only keep the detailed custom entries.

This can be done by creating a Data Collection Rule for the AppTraces table in the related Log Analytics Workspace specifying the following filters in the Transformation Editor:

source
| where

(

Properties.eventId != "RT0008"

)

or

(

Properties.endpoint != 'MobileDocumentService'

)

or
Properties.httpStatusCode != '200'

This excludes generic web service calls from Mobile WMS but keeps everything else - including the detailed custom ALMOB2000 to ALMOB2002 logs for mobile document requests.
