While playing around with PHP (experimental support) in Azure Functions, I noticed that there is no documentation yet and very few examples, so here’s my first simple example on how to build an Azure Function using PHP to parse a very simple GET request.

I’m assuming you’ve set up your function, go into Files and edit the function.json file:

{
  "bindings": [
    {
      "type": "httpTrigger",
      "direction": "in",
      "name": "req",
      "methods": [
        "get"
      ],
      "authLevel": "function"
    },
    {
      "type": "http",
      "direction": "out",
      "name": "res"
    }
  ],
  "disabled": false
}

This sets the function to listen to get requests and ignore the default Azure Table storage stuff.

Then open the run.php file and Continue reading Parsing a GET request in PHP with an Azure Function →
