May I have 2 functions with different triggers (Event Grid & Service Bus) in one project (repository) ?

Question

Hello,

I have two functions which are using identical Python code for different purposes. They both should reside in one Function App.

The first function is Event Grid triggered, with Event Subscription in IoT Hub and is using 'Microsoft.Devices.DeviceCreated' event type.

The second should be Service Bus Queue triggered, as Event Grid cannot catch events on Device Twin Update...

I want to have both functions in one repository (and in one Function App) and in one deployment pipeline after that.

Is this doable or not?

Note: The only issue we had with the first function is the deployment - not able to deploy correctly every time from the VS Code extension.

Thank you!

Hello @Voynova, Silvena,

welcome to this moderated Azure community forum.

Yes, you can have multiple Azure Function being executed within the same Web App.

These functions with share the resources but that is ok.

Only when you want to split your Azure Solution in multiple VNETs it's probably recommended to split the ingest (The IoT Hub logic) with the processing stuff (output of ADT).

Here is a GitHub example with multiple functions for processing Azure Digital Twins logic.

See how multiple functions are put in multiple files although this could have been one big file technically (but that is not practical).
