App settings reference for Azure Functions

App settings in a function app contain global configuration options that affect all functions for that function app. When you run locally, these settings are in environment variables. This article lists the app settings that are available in function apps.

There are other global configuration options in the host.json file and in the local.settings.json file.

APPINSIGHTS_INSTRUMENTATIONKEY

The Application Insights instrumentation key if you're using Application Insights. See Monitor Azure Functions.

Key Sample value
APPINSIGHTS_INSTRUMENTATIONKEY 5dbdd5e9-af77-484b-9032-64f83bb83bb

AzureWebJobsDashboard

Optional storage account connection string for storing logs and displaying them in the Monitor tab in the portal. The storage account must be a general-purpose one that supports blobs, queues, and tables. See Storage account and Storage account requirements.

AzureWebJobsDisableHomepage

true means disable the default landing page that is shown for the root URL of a function app. Default is false.

Specifies the repository or provider to use for key storage. Currently, the supported repositories are blob ("Blob") and file system ("disabled"). The default is file system ("disabled").

AzureWebJobsStorage

The Azure Functions runtime uses this storage account connection string for all functions except for HTTP triggered functions. The storage account must be a general-purpose one that supports blobs, queues, and tables. See Storage account and Storage account requirements.

The version of the Azure Functions runtime to use in this function app. A tilde with major version means use the latest version of that major version (for example, "~1"). When new versions for the same major version are available, they are automatically installed in the function app. To pin the app to a specific version, use the full version number (for example, "1.0.12345"). Default is "~1".
