Build for Python Funciton app

Question

I have created a function in VS Code and has setup the version control in Azure Devops.

Now I need to run this code as a part of function app available with me. I have an option to deploy in VSCode as shown below

Do I need to make a build before I deploy into the function app? If Yes, how do I make this Build. This is python app. Any suggestions or articles on how to build would be appreciated.

Hi @Krishnamohan Nadimpalli - Thanks for posting on MS Q&A!

Because Python is an interpreted language, there's no build compilation process involved. However, because Azure Functions offer multiple options for deployment (depending on the DevOps model, VS Code development, etc.), the packaging build artifacts vary a little bit. Based on your screenshot, it looks like you're developing in VS Code, so I recommend that you thoroughly review the following docs:

• Deployment technologies in Azure Functions
• Create a function in Azure with Python using Visual Studio Code
• Azure Functions Python developer guide
