GitHub actions deployed failing Function
I had provisioned an App Service Plan and Linux Consumption Function using terraform.
Then connected Visual Studio to perform CI/CD with Github actions.
However when it completed it deployed a Function App with no functions.
When the timer ran it also said:
I ended up creating a new one from scratch using Visual Studio to see what was going wrong.
The first thing I noticed was that the failing Function App had a "Deployment Credentials" blade whereas the working one didn't.
This made me suspect that the App Service Plan was different.
Indeed, I then compared the working one to the terraform definition that provisioned the broken one.
Immediately it was obvious that there were substantial differences, including:
The App Service Plan must be set to "FunctionApp", not "Linux".
Setting the Function app kind and os_type probably help too.
Summary
So, the old rules apply for building terraform files. Actually build a working resource first using the Wizards and Visual Studio, then create a Terraform file, import the resource, plan it, and compare the differences until there are none. Then you know you have a working Terraform file.
