Create your first serverless app

  1. Select the button to create a new project in the Azure Functions explorer

    createNewProject

  2. Select a new, empty folder to contain your project

  3. Select your desired programming language

  4. Select "HTTP trigger" for your project's first function

  5. Use "HttpTrigger1" as the function name

  6. Select "Anonymous" for the authorization level, which enables anyone to call your function endpoint without a key.

    To learn more about authorization levels, see here.

  7. If the selected folder is not already open, select "Open in current window" to open it

Run the serverless app locally

This extension integrates with the Azure Functions Core Tools to let you run your project locally before publishing to Azure.

  1. To start your project, press F5 or the "play" button

    debug

  2. If you do not have the Azure Functions Core Tools installed, you will be automatically prompted to install. Follow the specified instructions, or skip to the "Deploy" step if you would rather deploy without running locally.

    TIP: The "Terminal" panel should pop up automatically and you know your project is running if you see output

  3. Expand your local project in the Azure Functions explorer to copy your function's url

    debug2

  4. Navigate to a browser, paste the url, and append ?name=world

    TIP: Your url should look like this: http://localhost:7071/api/HttpTrigger1?name=world

  5. A response of "Hello world" is returned in the browser and you know your function worked!

  6. Select the "Detach" button to stop your project from running locally

    debug3

Deploy to Azure

  1. Sign in to your Azure Account by clicking "Sign in to Azure..." in the Azure Functions explorer

    If you don't already have an Azure Account, click "Create a Free Azure Account"

  2. Select the 'plus' button to open the "Create Resource" menu

    Create resource

  3. Choose "Create Function App in Azure..."

    Create Function App in Azure

  4. Enter a globally unique name for your Function App

  5. If multiple versions of your language's runtime are supported (i.e. Node.js 10 and Node.js 12), select your desired version (the latest is recommended)

  6. Select a location

  7. Wait for your Function App to be created. Progress will be shown in the Activity Log panel

    deploy2

  8. Once your Function App has been created, reveal the resource in the Resources view.

    Finished creating Function App

  9. Right click your Function App and select "Deploy to Function App"

    Deploy to Function App

  10. Once deployment is complete, expand your subscription in the Azure Functions explorer to copy your deployed function's url

    deploy3

  11. Navigate to a browser, paste the url, and append ?name=world

    TIP: Your url should look like this: https://<function app name>.azurewebsites.net/api/HttpTrigger1?name=world

  12. A response of "Hello world" is returned in the browser and you know your function worked!
