In the Cloud Shell, create deployment credentials with the az webapp deployment user set command. This deployment user is required for FTP and local Git deployment to a web app. The user name and password are account level. They are different from your Azure subscription credentials.
In the following example, replace <username> and <password> (including brackets) with a new user name and password. The user name must be unique within Azure. The password must be at least eight characters long, with two of the following three elements: letters, numbers, symbols.
az webapp deployment user set --user-name <username> --password <password>
You should get a JSON output, with the password shown as null. If you get a 'Conflict'. Details: 409 error, change the username. If you get a 'Bad Request'. Details: 400 error, use a stronger password.
You create this deployment user only once; you can use it for all your Azure deployments.
Note
Record the user name and password. You need them to deploy the web app later.
