Unable to resolve service for type 'Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger' while attempting to activate 'Controller'

Question

I am trying to implement Application Insights logging.

Here is my startup

Under configureservices

services.AddApplicationInsightsTelemetry(Configuration["ApplicationInsights:InstrumentationKey"]);

Here is my controller

    private readonly My_DevContext _context;
    private Task t;
    private readonly IKipReport _kipReport;
    private readonly ILogger _logger;
    public ReportExtractionController(ILogger logger,My_DevContext context, IKipReport kipReport)
    {
        _context = context;
        _kipReport = kipReport;
        _logger = logger;
    }
    // GET: api/<RepprtExtractionController>
    [HttpGet]
    public async Task<IActionResult> Get()
    {
        _logger.LogError("Trial");
    }

When trying to call the API its saying 500,internal server error

System.InvalidOperationException: Unable to resolve service for type 'Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger' while attempting to activate 'Toolset_API.Controllers.ReportExtractionController'.

Change your code like below:

private readonly ILogger _logger;
public ReportExtractionController(ILogger<ReportExtractionController> logger)
{
    _logger = logger;
}
