Where do I find the value I need to set WEBSITE_CONTENTSHARE to?

Question

In the overview of my Function App, a little pop up appears at the top saying my storage account was not set up correctly and that scaling may be limited.

It seems like I need to set 3 values in the configuration of my function app to fix this, but I don't know the value of one of them.

AzureWebJobsStorage - The Connection String from my Storage Account

WEBSITE_CONTENTAZUREFILECONNECTIONSTRING - Same as above

WEBSITE_CONTENTSHARE - ???? seems like it should be the name of my function app followed by 4 alphanumeric characters? Just not sure what those are.

Thank you.

Hi Nathan,

WEBSITE_CONTENTSHARE needs to be the name of the file share in the function's storage account.

Browse to your function's storage account in the portal, next open Data storage -- File shares blade, and on the right you will see the share name. It is normally the name of the function app with several random characters appended.
