Here like we discussed :

AADApplicationId is same as Service Principal Id also known as Client ID , which is nothing but AAD application’s Application Id.

AADApplicationKey is same as Client Secret which is the Key which you have created in previous post for AAD application.

Please note , the Github code in Function app is written to read these app setting keys , if you write different  app setting key names ,then you will need to modify that code as well to read those keys , otherwise you will end up getting no key and thus runtime exception.

Now in Next Post we will go through  Deploy the Function App code & Test It section here :
