Hey

I have an Azure function app that uses http trigger and is being called everyday. It has been called everyday for 4 months without problems, but the last two days I have encountered problems where I can't trigger it through the URL.
I have since making the function switched to a new computer and when I tried to download the VSCode extension for azure functions I was greatly disappointed that I couldn't find it. A colleague of mine still had it, but it then says it isn't the correct version. Tried to change to a different version of the extension but in the extensions menu it says that is the only option.

  • I have reinstalled VSCode and deleted .vscode and Appdata/Code

Can't find any information about it being deprecated or the switch to something else instead. Hoping someone can help me unravel this mystery of mine.

Kind regards,

Reimer

    @Christian Reimer L. Hansen ,

    Thanks for the update! I appreciate you testing things on your end.

    Based on what you mentioned, the 500 error could be related to some internal function issue. I’d recommend checking the logs in the Azure portal or Application Insights to see if there’s more info on what's going wrong.

    Also, regarding the warning about the authentication token, it sounds like your function requires a key to trigger. You can find the full URL with the token in the Azure Functions explorer or the portal and use that for testing.

    Since the extension is set up, it seems like the issue might be more with the function itself or the app settings. If you can, double-check those and let me know if anything stands out.

    Let me know how it goes, or if you need any more help!
