Deploy Azure Function to Azure Environment with Python from VScode

Question

I created a Azure function in VS code with Python, and tried to deploy to the Azure environment, but failed.

I created a function with Python from local, and didn't create the virtual environment, and it ran successfully from locally test, and I tried to deploy the function by clicking the deploy button (a cloud icon) from the WORKPLACE Local.

And the error output log:

As per my experience, I observed that creating the function app from portal and publishing from VS Code will give these kinds of errors sometimes.

From the VS Code Terminal, try using Azure Functions Core Tools or CLI or PowerShell cmdlets:

AF Core Tools cmdlets:

pip freeze > requirements.txt
func azure functionapp publish krishpyfuncapp

Before running this cmdlet, make sure to activate the virtual environment in the VS Code Function Project:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

This cmdlet taken from the MS Doc Reference.

Cause 2: It also might be regarding storage account connection string in the local.settings.json. Place the Azure Storage account connection string (i.e., associated with the function app) in AzureWebJobsStorage > Save and Deploy to function App using VS Code IDE.
