I am running function app and it is timedbased trigger of 10 min so I want to know like is it going to run another instance even if already running one is not finished yet.

Question

I have made the time trigger based function app using Python now I have one doubt like is it creating multiple instance of function app and running simultaneously all the instance if it has been trigger in the interval and all have not finished it processing yet.
Actually, I don't want in that way, I want it to start running to another time once this already running one is finished.

So please let me know any property which will help in setting this to one so that only at a time one is running.

Hi

If you have a time triggered function it will not run another instance based on that trigger. You have to not trigger the function by other means though:

Hope this helps!
