    Hi @Vikas Rajareddy

    Just to confirm, you've updated all your extensions to a version (or higher) listed below:

    Check Extension Minimum Version
    ✔️ Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.Storage 4.0.4
    ✔️ Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.ServiceBus 4.2.1
    ✔️ Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventHubs 4.3.0
    Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.DurableTask 2.4.1
    Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.CosmosDB 3.0.9
    Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventGrid 2.1.0
    Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.RabbitMQ 1.0.0
    Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.Kafka 3.2.1

    According to the exception, it's loading versions lower than what's required. I would check your nuget references by inspecting packages.config or <PackageReference/> in the csproj. At the solution level, if you have mismatched versions, this could cause an issue. You may have binding redirects that's not pointing the correct version.

    Hello @VikasRajareddy-9365

    This error message indicates that there is an issue with the version of some of the extensions that are being used in your Azure Functions project.

    To resolve this issue, you need to update the NuGet package references for the affected extensions to the required minimum versions. Specifically, you should update the

    Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventHubs package to version 4.3.0 or later, the Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.Storage package to version 4.0.4 or later, and the Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.ServiceBus package to version 4.2.1 or later.

    Once you have updated the package references, restart your IDE, rebuild your project and try running it again.

    I hope this helps further
