Azure Function App's ConfigurationManager.AppSettings return nulls

I have created an app setting name under Application settings as circled in red in the following image (myStorageName). enter image description here

It does have value. However, whenever I call the following line in my HttpTrigger function, it returns null.

accountName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["myStorageName"];
log.LogInformation(accountName);

I tried to include myStorageName under Manage but I don't think ConfigurationManager.AppSettings is meant to retrieve function keys and host keys under Manage.

enter image description here

Any solution? Thanks.

This solved my problem. "myStorageName" should indeed be stored under Application Settings.

accountName = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable["myStorageName"];
log.LogInformation(accountName);

App setting name is not to be confused with function keys and host keys.

There are two types of keys:

  1. Host keys: These keys are shared by all functions within the function app. When used as an API key, these allow access to any function within the function app.
  2. Function keys: These keys apply only to the specific functions under which they are defined. When used as an API key, these only allow access to that function.
