Summary
The documentation provides examples for the Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell, with PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) given equal prominence to the cross-platform Azure CLI. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, and PowerShell is presented as a primary method. The documentation does not mention or provide parity for Linux-native tools or scripting environments, and the only local example is for local.settings.json, not for command-line usage. There is also a note about a Linux limitation, but no guidance or alternatives are provided for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add bash (Linux shell) command-line examples for managing app settings, using Azure CLI in a Linux context.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and recommend it as the primary command-line tool for both Windows and Linux.
  • De-emphasize PowerShell as a primary method, or clearly label it as Windows-specific, and ensure it is not presented before cross-platform solutions.
  • Provide guidance or workarounds for the Linux-specific limitation regarding hyphens in function names.
  • Include explicit instructions or examples for Linux users, such as using environment variables or configuration files in Linux environments.

### [Azure PowerShell](#tab/powershell)

The [`Update-AzFunctionAppSetting`](/powershell/module/az.functions/update-azfunctionappsetting) command adds or updates an application setting. The following command disables a function named `QueueTrigger` by creating an app setting named `AzureWebJobs.QueueTrigger.Disabled` and setting it to `true`.
