Azure Portal Function Error: Update your NuGet package reference for Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventHubs

I've been trying to fix this since yesterday but have done more damage than good. I have a function app (written in JS) in the Azure Portal. All was working well until two days ago when I received the below error. I've seen a few bits online saying the fix is to update the reference however I'm not really sure where I should update the reference to NuGet package. In my function app's code I have both a js file and the json file but I don't know where the NuGet package comes in. Apologies if this is trivial I'm still learning but would really like to understand what's going on here. For reference I'm on a Mac and have been working off VS code.

Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Script: One or more loaded extensions do not meet the minimum requirements. For more information see https://aka.ms/func-min-extension-versions.

ExtensionStartupType EventHubsWebJobsStartup from assembly 'Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.EventHubs, Version=4.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' does not meet the required minimum version of 4.3.0.0. Update your NuGet package reference for Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventHubs to 4.3.0 or later.
