Property Description
trafficRoutingMethod possible values are Performance, Weighted, and Priority
dnsConfig FQDN for the profile
Protocol monitoring protocol, possible values are HTTP and HTTPS
Port monitoring port
Path monitoring path
Endpoints container for endpoint resources

targetResourceId public IP address of a service or web endpoint. This can be an Azure or external endpoint.
