How to make a FunctionApp setting slotSpecific using ARM templates
We are using ARM templates to deploy function apps but the slotSetting: true property is not respected and I cannot find any modern documentation as to how to make app settings slot specific.
THis is my app settings snippet in my ARM template
{
"name": "AzureWebJobs.HandleFiscalFrResponse.Disabled",
"value": "1",
"slotSetting": true
}
the setting and the value works but the slotSettings attribute is ignored silently, no error is shown its just ignored.
What is the correct way to make a function app setting slot specific?
Solution
I have reproduced the issue and able to resolve, please follow the below steps
Open VS code and create a file using
.jsonextension and se the below code
Thanks @patelchandni for the ARM Template code.

- To login to azure portal, run the PowerShell command
az login
- Set subscription by using
az account set --subscription "Subscription ID xxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxx"
- Deploy to azure portal
New-AzResourceGroupDeployment -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroupName" -TemplateFile "FileName.json" -TemplateParameterFile "Filename.parameters.json"
- After execution you will get below one as result in power shall
- After deploying into azure portal open the function app and select deployment slot
Update
I have deployed the below code in Custom deployment In Azure portal
