Azure Function App works locally but not in the Azure Portal

Hi there,

I have an issue with my Azure function or to be more specific, with deploying and having it function in the Azure Portal.

The Function is a BlobTrigger and works fine locally, I used the following guide / link: Develop Azure Functions locally using Core Tools.

When running the following command: func azure functionapp publishIt deploys to my function app in the portal fine, I have also published it with --local-settings.

However, when I am 'running' the function in the portal, it does not run anything. There is no Invocations (not an error) and no Application Insights.

I am wondering whether I included all the correct environment variables in the Portal, but I figured when publishing it with --local-settings this should take care of it? Therefore I have the following questions:

1. Which environment variables should I declare in the portal, currently the only environment variables in the portal are: APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_CONNECTION_STRING, AzureWebJobsStorage and FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME. Are these the correct variables? Should there be more?
2. In the local script, I also declare (and call) a variable for AzureWebJobsStorage, could this interfere with the environment variable in the function in the portal? Because it shouldn't; the variables have the same string/value.

Let me know if anything is unclear.
