Measures reported by AzrApiAccessTest

The Azure Resource Manager provides a consistent management layer for the tasks performed through Azure PowerShell, Azure CLI, Azure portal, REST API, and development tools. All the tools use a common set of operations. These tools can be chosen and used in a hassle free manner. The Azure Resource Manager communicates with the development tools using the Azure Resource manager API. The API passes requests from the tools to the Resource Manager service, which authenticates and authorizes the requests. Resource Manager then routes the requests to the appropriate resource providers. If the Resource Manager API is not accessible, then the tools hosted on the Azure cloud may not be available. Therefore it is necessary to periodically check the accessibility of the Resource manager API. The AzrApiAccessTest helps administrators in this regard.

This test helps administrators figure out whether/not the API is accessible.
