Configure your environment

Before you get started, make sure you have the following requirements in place:

An Azure account with an active subscription. Create an account for free .


    node --version

command to check your version.

Create your local project

In this section, you use Visual Studio Code to create a local Azure Functions project in TypeScript. Later in this article, you publish your function code to Azure.

Choose the Azure icon in the Activity bar. Then in the Workspace (local) area, select the + button, choose Create Function in the dropdown. When prompted, choose Create new project .

Authorization level Choose


    Anonymous

, which enables anyone to call your function endpoint. To learn about authorization level, see Authorization keys . Select how you would like to open your project Choose


    Open in current window

Using this information, Visual Studio Code generates an Azure Functions project with an HTTP trigger. You can view the local project files in the Explorer. To learn more about files that are created, see Generated project files .

Run the function locally

Visual Studio Code integrates with Azure Functions Core tools to let you run this project on your local development computer before you publish to Azure.

To start the function locally, press F5 or the Run and Debug icon in the left-hand side Activity bar. The Terminal panel displays the Output from Core Tools. Your app starts in the Terminal panel. You can see the URL endpoint of your HTTP-triggered function running locally.

If you have trouble running on Windows, make sure that the default terminal for Visual Studio Code isn't set to WSL Bash .

With Core Tools still running in Terminal , choose the Azure icon in the activity bar. In the Workspace area, expand Local Project > Functions . Right-click (Windows) or Ctrl - click (macOS) the new function and choose Execute Function Now... .

In Enter request body you see the request message body value of { "name": "Azure" } . Press Enter to send this request message to your function.

When the function executes locally and returns a response, a notification is raised in Visual Studio Code. Information about the function execution is shown in Terminal panel.

With the Terminal panel focused, press Ctrl + C to stop Core Tools and disconnect the debugger.

After you've verified that the function runs correctly on your local computer, it's time to use Visual Studio Code to publish the project directly to Azure.

Before you can publish your app, you must sign in to Azure.

If you aren't already signed in, choose the Azure icon in the Activity bar. Then in the Resources area, choose Sign in to Azure... .

If you're already signed in and can see your existing subscriptions, go to the next section. If you don't yet have an Azure account, choose Create and Azure Account... . Students can choose Create and Azure for Students Account... .

When prompted in the browser, choose your Azure account and sign in using your Azure account credentials. If you create a new account, you can sign in after your account is created.

After you've successfully signed in, you can close the new browser window. The subscriptions that belong to your Azure account are displayed in the sidebar.

Create the function app in Azure

In this section, you create a function app and related resources in your Azure subscription.

Choose the Azure icon in the Activity bar. Then in the Resources area, select the + icon and choose the Create Function App in Azure option.

Provide the following information at the prompts:

Prompt Selection Select subscription Choose the subscription to use. You won't see this prompt when you have only one subscription visible under Resources . Enter a globally unique name for the function app Type a name that is valid in a URL path. The name you type is validated to make sure that it's unique in Azure Functions. Select a runtime stack Choose the language version on which you've been running locally. Select a location for new resources For better performance, choose a region near you.

The extension shows the status of individual resources as they're being created in Azure in the Azure: Activity Log panel.

When the creation is complete, the following Azure resources are created in your subscription. The resources are named based on your function app name:

A resource group , which is a logical container for related resources.

A standard Azure Storage account , which maintains state and other information about your projects.

A function app, which provides the environment for executing your function code. A function app lets you group functions as a logical unit for easier management, deployment, and sharing of resources within the same hosting plan.

An App Service plan, which defines the underlying host for your function app.

An Application Insights instance connected to the function app, which tracks usage of your functions in the app.

A notification is displayed after your function app is created and the deployment package is applied.

By default, the Azure resources required by your function app are created based on the function app name you provide. By default, they're also created in the same new resource group with the function app. If you want to either customize the names of these resources or reuse existing resources, you need to publish the project with advanced create options instead.

Update app settings

To enable your V4 programming model app to run in Azure, you need to add a new application setting named AzureWebJobsFeatureFlags with a value of EnableWorkerIndexing . This setting is already in your local.settings.json file.

In Visual Studio Code, press F1 to open the command palette. In the command palette, search for and select Azure Functions: Add New Setting... .

Choose your new function app, type AzureWebJobsFeatureFlags for the new app setting name, and press Enter .

For the value, type EnableWorkerIndexing and press Enter .

Deploy the project to Azure

Important

Deploying to an existing function app always overwrites the contents of that app in Azure.

Choose the Azure icon in the Activity bar, then in the Workspace area, select your project folder and select the Deploy... button.

Select Deploy to Function App... , choose the function app you just created, and select Deploy .

After deployment completes, select View Output to view the creation and deployment results, including the Azure resources that you created. If you miss the notification, select the bell icon in the lower right corner to see it again.

In Enter request body you see the request message body value of { "name": "Azure" } . Press Enter to send this request message to your function.

When the function executes in Azure and returns a response, a notification is raised in Visual Studio Code.

Clean up resources

When you continue to the next step and add an Azure Storage queue binding to your function, you'll need to keep all your resources in place to build on what you've already done.

Otherwise, you can use the following steps to delete the function app and its related resources to avoid incurring any further costs.

In Visual Studio Code, press F1 to open the command palette. In the command palette, search for and select Azure: Open in portal .

Choose your function app and press Enter . The function app page opens in the Azure portal.

In the Overview tab, select the named link next to Resource group .

On the Resource group page, review the list of included resources, and verify that they're the ones you want to delete.

Select Delete resource group , and follow the instructions.

Deletion may take a couple of minutes. When it's done, a notification appears for a few seconds. You can also select the bell icon at the top of the page to view the notification.

Next steps

You have used Visual Studio Code to create a function app with a simple HTTP-triggered function. In the next article, you expand that function by connecting to Azure Storage. To learn more about connecting to other Azure services, see Add bindings to an existing function in Azure Functions .
