Azure function app - Files appear in "App Files" but "Functions" is empty

Question

Hello,

First of all, this is my first time ever working with Azure functions, so I will really need some baby explanations. Sorry for that.

Basically we're trying to deploy a function to Azure. The function is written in Python, using development model v2. It works perfect on our local vscode but fails when we try to run it in Azure (we get 404).

I've noticed that while all files are present in the "App Files" tab, the "Functions" tab is completely empty.

I'd appreciate any assistance.

If you're seeing all the files in the "App Files" tab but not in the "Functions" tab, it's possible that your function code is not properly configured or deployed. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

Double-check that you have the correct Azure Function App selected. Sometimes, multiple Function Apps can be present in the same subscription, and it's possible that you have selected the wrong one.

Check that your function code is properly deployed to the Azure Function App. You can do this by navigating to the "Deployment Center" tab in your Function App and checking that the deployment status is "Success." If the deployment is not successful, check the logs for any error messages that may indicate why the deployment failed.

Make sure that your function code is properly structured and named. In Python, the function code should be in a file called __init__.py located in the function folder. Additionally, the function folder should have the same name as the function itself.

Check that your function is properly triggered. Make sure that you have configured the correct trigger for your function, and that the trigger is properly set up in your code.

Check that your function is deployed to the correct region. Azure Function Apps can be deployed to different regions, and if your function is deployed to a different region than the one you're trying to access it from, you may encounter issues.

If you've tried these steps and are still having issues, you can check the Azure Function App logs for more detailed error messages that may indicate why your function is failing.
