Azure Load Testing: adding the user.properties file doesn't work

Question

Jmeter has a property file 'user.properties' in which properties can be set and loaded only when jmeter starts up, so not possible to set properties inside a jmx file.
I need to add a property for adding extra customized columns in the csv logfile.
This the line that is added to the user.properties file:

    sample_variables=username,version,uuid

I uploaded this property file within the configuration section in which Script, Data and Configuration files can be uploaded to the testplan.
But after running the test no extra columns were added to the csv file, so it looks like the user.properties file was not interpreted.

So how can we add "jmeter/user properties" with the Azure Load Testing tool?

Hi Team,

I'm trying to override JMeter properties by adding below to the user.properties file.

While trying to run test in Azure load testing service, it's picking up the threadCount,rampUpSeconds,durationSeconds and not picking up clientId, clientSecret value and jmeter.save.saveservice.* . I'm not able to debug it as log file is not providing much information and not able to see the request/response .

Properties file:
jmeter.save.saveservice.response_data.on_error=true
jmeter.save.saveservice.samplerData=true
threadCount=20
rampUpSeconds=30
durationSeconds=600
clientId=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
clientSecret=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
