I have a requirement where i want to notify users if a process is completed or not. I want to use Azure function that initiates a websocket connection but it is not working as expected. Can anyone please help me in this scenario. SIgnal R and pubsub service i cant use. Is there is any other alternative. This is a bit urgent. Thank you in advance.

    PubSub is the Microsoft support for azure functions using web sockets. Your other option is to use a web app service rather than azure functions. a simple asp.net core min api is a good replacement for an azure function.
