I recently setup an Azure App Service Web App and was able to enable WebSockets via the configuration tab.

Today I have been having persistent issues with the WebSockets, and went to review the configuration tab. The setting to enable/disable WebSockets on the configuration tab is not there.

Anyone know what happened to it?

    Hello @Opster

    Web Sockets are not currently supported for Linux apps on Free App Service Plans. MS Doc

    I have created App Service with Windows OS and Free plan, I am able to see the option of Web Sockets in Configuration section

    Hi,
    Were you able to solve this?
    I am struggling to make this works in my app as well.
    And I think things are changing fast on Azure because in the documentation you revered it is written g.the following

    Web Sockets are now supported for Linux apps on Free App Service plans. We support up to five web socket connections on Free App Service plans. Exceeding this limit results in an HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) response.
