@Nagnath Katkar Do you want to change the storage account settings when the function app is running ( on the fly) ? Well, that is not possible. If you have an option to restart the function we can navigate to Configuration -> AzureWebJobStorage and change the value. Restart the function app.

More details on the function app settings here

However, we need more details on what you are trying to achieve.

note that if you want completely switch to another storage account then in addition to AzureWebJobsStorage you also need to update AzureWebJobsDashboard app setting in Configuration > Application settings.

AzureWebJobsDashboard

Optional storage account connection string for storing logs and displaying them in the Monitor tab in the portal. This setting is only valid for apps that target version 1.x of the Azure Functions runtime. The storage account must be a general-purpose one that supports blobs, queues, and tables.

App settings reference for Azure Functions
