How to enter a container via SSH for Azure app services multicontainer

Question

Hello everyone, I am newbie in Azure platform, maybe someone could clarify me, I have deployed a multi-container app in the Azure app services section. The docker-compose file includes containers for: a backend in PHP, a mysql database.

The thing is, I didn't find options in the azure dashboard to inspect someway these containers, like in docker desktop, where can choose "Open in terminal" option, just to explain what I look for. I read documentation, but it was about using the ssh option in azure panel (by the way, in my case ssh is disabled, without success trying to enable it).

I would really appreciate your help
