 # Write code to track requests with Application Insights
 
-To view profiles for your application on the Performance page, Azure Application Insights needs to track requests for your application. Application Insights can automatically track requests for applications that are built on already-instrumented frameworks. Two examples are ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core.

After you've written this code, requests telemetry is sent to Application Insights. You can view the telemetry on the Performance page, and profiles are collected for those requests.
