Hello,
I am trying to write an Azure Function App in python that should automatically pull messages from RabbitMQ.
The only example that I can find of how to do this is the following documentation:
This however doesn't work. My function.json always tells me that there are syntax-errors in it when I try to save it. Also why aren't there decorator-triggers like with HTTP- and Service Bus-Triggers?
I'd like to have an actual working example of how to set up RabbitMQ-Triggers for an Azure Function in Python.

Thanks for reaching out could you please confirm on the below to troubleshoot the issue further?
- Can you share the exact syntax error message you’re receiving in your
function.json? - Are you using the correct version of the Azure Functions Core Tools?
- Which Hosting Plan are you currently using for your Function App (Consumption, Premium, etc.)?
- Can you share the exact syntax error message you’re receiving in your

2025-05-12T16:59:35.1366667+00:00 There is no error message, since the way described in the documentation is for the old Azure Functions v1 and I want to know what the way for v2 is. Or if RabbitMQ-Trigger just isn't available for v2, which would be weird.
I don't understand what you mean with "correct version" of the Azure Function Core Tools. The version I am using is 4.0.7030.
I am not using a hosting plan since I am just developing locally right now.
