I had captured fiddler while while running the above command. Azure CLI works on the Python process The python process was issuing request to

https://management.azure.com to update appsetting.

got a reference to the same endpoint in the below REST Endpoint : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/appservice/webapps/updateapplicationsettings

Request URI :

PUT https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.Web/sites/{name}/config/appsettings?api-version=2019-08-01

Headers :

Authorization: Bearer <> ; Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

Request Body:

{"kind": "", "properties":JSON}

We can hardcode the properties or get it dynamically. For disabling the function, will have to update the JSON node of Properties : Azure.WebJobs.QueueTrigger.Disabled = True

To get properties you could use the endpoint, you could refer Web Apps - List Application Settings The Output looks up as below :
