How to update Azure App Configuration Settings using Code (.Net Core)

Question

Hi all

I want to update configuration (applicationsettings) in azure function app automatically.

I added all the configuration in local.settings.json

{
"IsEncrypted": false,
"Values": {
"AzureAbc": "AzureAbc",
"FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME": "dotnet",
"BaseUrl": "some_value",
"relUrl1": "some_value",
"relUrl1 "some_value"
}

}

but after publishing function app configuration values are not updated in azure function app configuration.

thanks.

When publishing an Azure Function app, the configuration settings in the local.settings.json file are not automatically updated in the Azure Function App's configuration. The local.settings.json file is meant for local development and debugging purposes and is not used for managing the actual configurations in the Azure portal. To update the configuration settings in the Azure Function App, you need to do it through the Azure portal or by using Azure CLI or PowerShell. Here's how you can update the configuration settings in the Azure Function App: Option 1: Using Azure Portal Go to the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com) and navigate to your Function App. In the Function App's menu, click on "Configuration" under "Settings." Here, you'll see the list of application settings for your Function App. Click on the "+ New application setting" button to add a new setting or edit an existing one by clicking on its name. Option 2: Using Azure CLI or PowerShell If you prefer using command-line tools, you can use Azure CLI or PowerShell to update the configuration settings. Using Azure CLI: # Replace FUNCTION_APP_NAME with the name of your Azure Function App az functionapp config appsettings set --name FUNCTION_APP_NAME --resource-group RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME --settings AzureAbc=AzureAbc BaseUrl=some_value relUrl1=some_value relUrl2=some_value Using PowerShell: # Replace FUNCTION_APP_NAME with the name of your Azure Function App Set-AzFunctionApp -Name FUNCTION_APP_NAME -ResourceGroupName RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME -AppSettings @{"AzureAbc"="AzureAbc"; "BaseUrl"="some_value"; "relUrl1"="some_value"; "relUrl2"="some_value"} to replace FUNCTION_APP_NAME and RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME with the actual names of your Azure Function App and the resource group it belongs to. After updating the configuration settings using either of the methods above, the new settings will be reflected in your Azure Function App. Remember to keep sensitive information, such as connection strings or passwords, encrypted and secure in your Azure Function App's configuration

That kind of provision is not there. You have a couple of options. 1. Manually go to the function app configuration and add whatever you want in the configuration. 2. All the configuration data add to the Azure key vault and use those secrets in your code side.

To update the configuration (application settings) in your Azure Function app, you can follow these steps: 1. **Update Application Settings in Azure Portal**: After publishing your Azure Function app, go to the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com/) and navigate to your Function app. 2. **Configure Application Settings**: In the Function app's left-hand menu, under the "Settings" section, click on "Configuration." Here, you can add, modify, or delete application settings. 3. **Add or Modify Settings**: Click on the "+ New application setting" button to add a new setting, or click on the existing setting to modify its value. 4. **Save Changes**: Once you have added or modified the application settings, click on the "Save" button to apply the changes. Alternatively, if you prefer to automate the configuration update process, you can use Azure CLI or PowerShell scripts as part of your deployment process. Here's an example using Azure CLI: 1. Install Azure CLI: Make sure you have Azure CLI installed on your local machine. 2. Sign in: Run `az login` to sign in to your Azure account. 3. Update Application Settings: Use the `az functionapp config appsettings set` command to set or update the application settings in your Function app. For example: az functionapp config appsettings set --name --resource-group --settings AzureAbc=AzureAbc BaseUrl=some_value relUrl1=some_value Replace ` ` and ` ` with the actual names of your Function app and the resource group where it is located.
