Hi ,

Can I deploy and manage Function App vis REST API similar to the way I could do for Logic App?

Thanks,

    @Jianying Huang As @Brig Lamoreaux has already shared the details. I am also sharing previous discussion. There are multiple challenges while creating the function dynamically and the recommended way is through code deployment. One more thing to note that if the app ever gets deployed using Run-From-Package that will take precedence and the functions created using the rest API will no longer be available inside the app. We recommend using Run-From-Package for performance reasons as well.

    Yes you can. Here is the documentation on creating a Function: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/appservice/webapps/createfunction

    However, most use cases it is best to use tools or SDKs that wrap the api and make it easier to work with. See the Deployment guides here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-deployment-technologies
