We have a web app that is deployed as an App Service in Azure. We would like to restrict access to it by having a white list of IP addresses that can be done in some Azure App Service setting and not in web.config that we have inside the project. Currently, this is how we do IP address restriction in our environments. Production: We have VNet Integration setup for the App Service. We attached an NSG to the VNet's Subnet and from the NSG we can control inbound and outbound access. Staging: We have the following block of configuration in our web.config that contains the whitelisted IP addresses

Is it possible to rename an App Service Plan ? I have already tried in both the old and new portals and can't find any rename options. Zain Rizvi No, you can't. However, if you create a new App Service Plan in the same region and resource group then you can move all your sites to the new App Service Plan and delete the old one. No but you can change it like this (if it is in the same region and resource group as mentioned by Zain Rizvi): Create a new App Service Plan and bind it to the correct Subscription and Resource Group. Example: Then go to your App Service and choose "Change App Service

The Azure management interface is abhorrently slow to load up the web jobs list, and the new portal just times out and fails 95% of the time. We have a lot of WebApps (often deployed per region) in Azure running web jobs. It's extremely cumbersome and slow to have to go through the UI to do all this. I know that the Kudu API offers start/stop mechanisms for web jobs and you can just drop a file called 'disable.job' in the job folder to stop it, but these all require going through the extremely annoyingly slow UI to download publish credentials ($username, password). Is there a PowerShell

It is possible to use Restart-​Azure​Rm​Web​App PowerShell to restart a web app but this will restart all servers in the plan simultaneously, giving a short downtime. The Azure Portal has an "Advanced Application Restart" feature that uses a time delay between restarting individual instances. Is there any way to invoke that from PowerShell? According to your description, I suggest you could firstly find each instance's process in your web app by using Get-AzureRmResource command. Then you could use Remove-AzureRmResource to stop these processes. Then when you access the azure web application,

Scenario I want to use virtual network in order to limit access to Azure Database only from my App Service, so that I can turn of "Allow access to App Services" in firewall settings What I have done: I went to App Service -> Networking -> VNET Integration -> Setup -> Create New Virtual Network I've created new VNET with default settings. When VNET was created I went to App Service -> Networking -> VNET Integration and ensured that the VNET is connected I went to SQL Firewall settigs -> Virtual Network -> Add existing Virtual Newtork and selected my VNET. I've left default subnet and address

I am using Azure platform for a webapp. I need to find out IP address of my web app so that I can whitelist it to an external server where I have created APIs. Is NSLookup the correct way to determine the IP address for whitelisting? The quickest way would be to login to the Azure portal and select your web app from the resources menu. Once you have the blade open for your web application there are two types of IP addresses. Inbound and outbound. For outbound IP, click properties from the resources menu. This will display a list of all possible outbound IP addresses. For inbound IP address,

I have been struggling to find some resources that help explain, how we use the File Storage with Web App Service. There are ways to use it with the old Web Roles, Check here ( Using the Azure File Service in your Cloud Services (Web and Worker Roles) ). However, there is NO OnStart() methods in "Azure Web Service". If you're looking for mapping a drive to your Azure File Service share in your Web App using SMB protocol, then I don't think you can do as of today. What you could do is make use of Azure File Service REST API and manipulate shares and files that way. You don't have to actually
