How to use Configuration values in Azure Functions?

Usage of config files are important to when we have generic variables,parameters  and environment values to store and call them in the source code. In Azure functions also we can maintain the configuration parameters when we write them from Cloud. In this blog I am going to show how we can use configuration parameters in Azure Function in cloud.

Steps:

1.Create an azure function and go to platform features.

2.Select Configuration  from platform features:

3.Select "Application Settings" and click on "New Application String"

4.Enter configuration parameter name and values:
 Here the parameter name is "testvalue" and is value is "sample"

5. Now use them in the code:

using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host;

Magic Line:
Private static string superSecret=System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("testvalue");

You are good to go now!!!

Similarly you can access the KeyVault values in config file and source codes.
