Support for WebJobs for Linux App Service (php)

Question

I got to know that webjobs are not supported on Linux (+PHP8) only after deploying and configuring my instance. Windows + PHP8 option is non-extant too.

Will Linux App Service plans ever be able to run WebJobs ?

Hello @Deepak Thomas

Unfortunately there is no ETA to implement WebJobs for App Service Linux, however you can vote for Azure feedback to add Webjob for linux service plan

Microsoft suggests using Azure Functions instead.

You have an Azure subscription that includes the following web apps:

WebApp1, which runs code in a Windows operating system.

WebApp2, which runs code in a Linux operating system.

WebApp3, which runs in a Docker container on Windows.

WebApp4, which runs in a Docker container on Linux.

From which web apps can you use WebJobs?

any idea ??
