Azure Timer Function Issues

vano76 5

I have created a timer azure function in c# using 7 isolated using v 4 of Azure Functions. When I run it on my machine locally it works fine. It consists of the timer file and a Program.cs. After having deployed it will execute correctly on startup but when the timer gets instantiated from the time trigger it runs for like 3 ms and quits and says completed. Like the timer ran output the logs but never kicked off the Program.cs to run the code. Is there configuration I can do or need to do to get this to run my Program.cs every run or I can add to assure this runs everytime? I am assuming everything is working correctly because if I startup the app it works fine on startup only doesn't work when time triggered which is all the time.

vano76 Thanks for posting your question in Microsoft Q&A. I assume you follow doc Timer trigger in setting up timer function and deployed it to Azure. From the description, timer function is firing but not working as expected. Can you share the code snippet, JSON, and run details including activity id, timestamp? That will help in investigating the logs or try to repro this.

Also, wondering if you tried manually invoking the timer trigger as described in doc: Manually invoke a timer trigger?

Thanks for the reply, so after doing some investigation I have my code located in the Program.cs file so it only runs on startup. Is there a way to get the timer to execute the code in the Program.cs file everytime it

triggers?

vano76 Are you referring to the timer function itself or any other function in Program.cs? If you can share the code snippet, function.json, it will be helpful to understand.

This is an entire C# application so I will just post a slimmed down version.

I am using isolated Worker 7 Timer Trigger

I have my Program.cs file that contains the a routine that gets data from SharePoint

My TimerTrigger does not execute the code that is in my Program.cs file after the timer executes.

My Question is: Is there a way to in my timer job to execute the code that is in my Program.cs file when the timer executes?

vano76 sure, share the code snippet whenever you can to assist you further.
