Enabling text compression on an azure app

Question

I am seeing an alert being reported on my azure app advising that text-based resources should be served with compression (gzip, deflate or brotli) to minimize total network bytes.

The website that is running on this app has azure front door attached to it.

Is there a portal solution to enabling this compression on my app, or would this need to be achieved otherwise?

@Simon Lovejoy Thanks for asking question! If I am understanding right you want to enable compression on the app service and not on AFD, If so,

You may refer to below blog links for the detailed steps and would be helpful-
