Note
Utilization of Azure Function Apps requires the premium Azure plan. The Premium Plan offers enhanced performance, supports VNET connectivity, provides advanced networking options, and allows for unlimited execution duration.
A connection to an Azure Function App is required to create custom settings. This can be done from the [Setting Library] or the [Overview] tab.
To create a Function App, follow the steps below:
- Browse to [Setting Library] > [Custom] and select [Create New] or [Function app: not configured]
- Click on [Create Azure function app]
- Under [Resource Group], click 'Create New' and enter a name for the new resource group. Then select the 'Region' for your Azure functions. Under 'Function App Plan Sku', choose the hosting plan for your Azure functions. Lastly, click on 'Review + create'.
- Under [Deployement details], click on the Function App
- Click on [Get publish profile]
- From the left menu navigate to [Functions] > [App Keys]
- Under [Host Keys (all functions)], click on the copy icon (highlighted) to copy the App key
- Once copied, switch back to the Control Panel > [Set up custom settings]. Under [App key], paste the copied App Key. Proceed with uploading the 'Publish Profile'. The fields under [Public URL] and [Function app name] will be filled automatically
- When the fields are completed, click 'Complete setup' and the Azure function app will be deployed. The status will be displayed in the active operation
