Empty azure function instances list in VS publish wizard

Question

I'm trying to publish an Azure Function using the Visual Studio Publish wizard, but the list of available existing instances is empty, although I've a Function created in Azure Portal.

So I tried using the wizard to create a new Function instance and the creation worked fine (I can find the newly created Function on the portal), but then I still cannot find this newly created Function in the instances list of the wizard.

I tried creating either Azure Function App (Windows), Azure Function App (Linux) and Azure Function App Container, but the list is always empty.

I've read somewhere it could be related to names' casing and I choose all lowercase names (although the wizard suggested camel case names)

Any ideas?

I'm not aware of any sort of casing affecting the reading of function instances @Matteos . If you're able to create the function instance from within Visual Studio, it's definitely odd that you can't view it.

What I suggest is running Fiddler, observe the network traffic from you devenv instance when you're on that screen. I doubt it's a permission issue because you're able to create the function app and view it in the portal. This will hopefully reveal the API call that's failing or returning an empty result. Other than that, it would be best to run the Report a problem option from the Feedback tool.
