I have following settings file:



{
"IsEncrypted": false,
"Values": {
"UniquePermisionsQueueConnStr": "xx",
"UniquePermisionsQueueName": "spo-unique-permissions-reporting",
"AzureWebJobsStorage": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true",
"AzureWebJobsDashboard": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true"
},
"CosmosDB": {
"UniquePermisionsQueueConnStr": "xx"
}
}


I can read the settings in the values section without any props by using ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["UniquePermisionsQueueName"]; or Environment...



However how do I get the values in the CosmosDB section? I tried ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["CosmosDB:UniquePermisionsQueueName"] but with no luck.

          Only Values section is injected into Environment variables by Azure Function runtime, hence we got nothing for other section.



          We need to read the Json file as usual. Add ExecutionContext context in function method signature and try code below.



          var r = new StreamReader(context.FunctionAppDirectory+"/local.settings.json");
          var myJson = r.ReadToEnd();
          dynamic config = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(myJson);
          var cosmosDBSettings = config.CosmosDB as JObject;
          var uniquePermisionsQueueConnStr = cosmosDBSettings.GetValue("UniquePermisionsQueueConnStr").ToString();


          As for deployment to Azure, local.settings.json is for local dev, which is not uploaded to Azure by default. We should remove <CopyToPublishDirectory>Never</CopyToPublishDirectory> in <functionname>.csproj(Right click on project and Edit <functionname>.csproj).
