Azure Function Isolated Mode. Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host: Error indexing method 'Functions....'. Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host: '%Azure:ServiceBus:Queue%' does not resolve to a value.

Azure Function Isolated Mode.

Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host: Error indexing method 'Functions....'. Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host: '%KEY:NAME%' does not resolve to a value.

My configuration:

<PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>
    <AzureFunctionsVersion>v4</AzureFunctionsVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
...
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker" Version="1.21.0" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Sdk" Version="1.17.2" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.ApplicationInsights" Version="1.2.0" />        
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.EventGrid" Version="3.4.1" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.Http" Version="3.1.0" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.ServiceBus" Version="5.17.0" />

Usage:

[Function("Function-Name")]
public async Task Run(
    [ServiceBusTrigger(
        queueName: "%Azure:ServiceBus:Queue%",
        Connection = "SERVICEBUS:CONNECTION:STRING")]
    ServiceBusReceivedMessage message,
    ServiceBusMessageActions messageActions,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
   ...
}

"%Azure:ServiceBus:Queue%" and "SERVICEBUS:CONNECTION:STRING" are taking from an AzureKeyVault (HostBuilder config)

var host = new HostBuilder()
    .ConfigureFunctionsWorkerDefaults()
    .ConfigureHostConfiguration(builder =>
    {
        builder.AddAzureKeyVaultSettingsConfiguration(GetKeyVaultName());
    })
    .ConfigureServices(services =>
    {
        ...
    })
    .Build();

Error:
Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host: Error indexing method 'Functions.Function-Name'. Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host: '%Azure:ServiceBus:Queue%' does not resolve to a value.

My assumption:
The problem is in the FunctionIndexProvider.cs file.

FunctionIndexer indexer = new FunctionIndexer(_triggerBindingProvider, 
...
_instanceServicesFactory, 
null, 
_sharedQueue, 
...
_defaultRetryStrategy); 

The INameResolver does not passing (null instead) to the constructor.

I can only get my function app to read %somevalue% in a queue trigger if it is set as an environment variable after switching to isolated mode. If it is set in appsettings.json its ignored and I get the same error as you get.

It seems like whatever INameResolver is used in Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host.NameResolverExtensions.ResolveWholeStringCore when configuring %%-values is only able to read environment variables.

Note: In the application, if i inject IConfiguration anywhere, it has all values from appsettings.json.

I was hunting this issue as well - after migration from net6 InProc to net8 Isolated, none of the Functions with timer trigger using the %% syntax started.

It's a nasty regression, we have around 20 functions with reasonable defaults in appsettings.json. In TEST env we used to override it in AppService App Settings to execute more often so we don't have to wait during the testing but in higher environments we only override when troubleshooting..

So now just to get it up and running we need to pollute the AppService with all these settings..

Just ran into this issue as well. Have to say isolated functions lacks support for a LOT of seemingly basic features like this...
Guess I'll just jam in an App Settings for now.

I had the same issue after migration from .net 6 in-process to .net 8 isolated. I use also the timer trigger with the %% syntax and it wasn't working. I moved my cron settings in local.settings.json to "Values" section and it works as before.

local.settings.json:

"Values": {
  "AzureWebJobsStorage": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true",
  "FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME": "botnet-isolated",
  "MyFuncTrigger": "*/5 * * * *" -- moved here and works now
}

I am also having this exact issue - the isolated model is not really usable right now in a production environment. The docs look the same for a couple of months and the bug does not seem to be fixed at all, very sad :(

I also had this issue. I created a workaround by creating a custom FunctionMetadataProvider and replacing the values in the RawBindings:

public class CustomFunctionMetadataProvider : IFunctionMetadataProvider
{
	private readonly IServiceProvider _serviceProvider;
	private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;

	public CustomFunctionMetadataProvider(IServiceProvider serviceProvider, IConfiguration configuration)
	{
		_serviceProvider = serviceProvider;
		_configuration = configuration;
	}

	public Task<ImmutableArray<IFunctionMetadata>> GetFunctionMetadataAsync(string directory)
	{
		var service = _serviceProvider.GetServices<IFunctionMetadataProvider>().ToList();
		var functionMetadataProvider = service.Last(x => x.GetType() != typeof(CustomFunctionMetadataProvider));
		var metadataList = new List<IFunctionMetadata>();
		Task<ImmutableArray<IFunctionMetadata>> list = functionMetadataProvider.GetFunctionMetadataAsync(directory);

		var settingRegex = new Regex("%(.+?)%");
		foreach (var item in list.Result)
		{
			for (var i=0; i < item.RawBindings.Count; i++)
			{
				var binding = item.RawBindings[i];
				var value = settingRegex.Replace(binding, m =>
				{
					var key = m.Groups[1].Value;
					return _configuration[key];
				});
				item.RawBindings[i] = value;
			}
			metadataList.Add(item);
		}

		return Task.FromResult(metadataList.ToImmutableArray());
	}
}

@Amelsfort

I'm curious if you had to register this class somehow so that it would be loaded/recognized. Apologies if this is obvious to most, but I'm not sure what to do with this class and would greatly appreciate your help!

We are having the same issue in migrating a TimerTrigger from In-Process to Isolated.
%MySchedule% is no longer retrieved from our appsettings.json file.

[Function("MyFunction")] public async Task MyFunction([TimerTrigger("%MySchedule%")] TimerInfo myTimer, FunctionContext context)

We get the error: %MySchedule% does not resolve to a value.at Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host.NameResolverExtensions.ResolveWholeStringCore(INameResolver resolver,String resolve,Boolean throwOnFailure)

[proc01]

I use the CustomFunctionMetadata above but having this issue with the connection:

Service Bus account connection string with name '<< REDACTED >> (a full connection string was incorrectly used instead of a connection setting name)'

Amelsfort
Any idea to resolve this one would be appreciated

[VenkatSappidi]

I am having the same issue. I am reading my setting from Azure app configuration. Any work around?
