My python function app works locally, though when deployed no functions appear.

I have a Python app locally that seems to be fully working:

  • It shows as a valid function app in the Azure panel of VS Code
  • The project loads and the main function shows when I run func start
  • I can execute the function locally

More specifically, the application behind the function is a flask app and it calls to a local Access database.

When I deploy the function to Azure, no functions appear in the Function App. I am deploying to a Consumption instance.

    Hi Kyle Burkholder ,

    Thank you for reaching out on the Microsoft Q&A.

    If your Python function app works locally but doesn't show any functions after deployment, first ensure each function has its own folder with the necessary function.json and init.py files. Double-check that your deployment package includes host.json and requirements.txt (with the azure-functions package). If you’re using Flask, make sure it’s correctly set up as an HTTP trigger without conflicting with the function bindings. For more detailed troubleshooting, refer to the Azure Functions Python Guide and the Troubleshooting Guide.

    I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
