Cannot edit config after creating Azure app service yaml file - azure

In Azure I created a container (Web App for containers) and under the docker tab added yaml file for the docker config. However after creating the container I cannot find anywhere to edit this yaml file. Is the only option to delete the container and create another one ?
This seems simple but I cannot find anything despite searching online and on Azure

To edit the YAML, select Deployment Center and the Settings tab. The YAML will be displayed in the Config textbox.

How to configure appsettings on a auto-generated preview environment

How can I change the appsettings on the preview environemnts that are generated by the Azure Static Web Apps CI/CD Github Action for each pull request?
I can go to the portal, navigate to the generated environment and change its appsettings. Doing this manually for each new pull request is error prone and will become tedious really fast.
I couldn't find any reference to this in the Build Configuration For Azure Static Webapps docs so I'm assuming it can't be configured that way.
I also couldn't find any reference to SWA environments in the CLI docs.
I looked into deployment environments but it looks like this is some other kind of deployment environment as it keeps mentioning devcenter.
In Azure Portal, While Creating Static Web App, after providing the GitHub Repo and Branch details, we will get an option to preview the Workflow file.
I can go to the portal, navigate to the generated environment and change its appsettings
Yes, In Configuration Section we have an option to add the App settings. But it is a manual work, which is not advised to follow.
Once we click on Review + create and create the Static Web App, a new folder with name .github/workflows will be created in the GitHub Repository.
It contains the same workflow file (preview file), which we saw while creating the Static WebApp in Azure Portal.
We can edit the Workflow manually.
To update the appsettings/configurations in the workflow, we can specify the steps in the existing workflow file.
We can use either Powershell/Azure CLI commands to update the Appsettings.
az staticwebapp appsettings set --name YourStaticWebAppname --setting-names "message=HelloEveryOne"
***Sample code for Updating App settings: ***
Before Build and deploystep in Workflow, add the below steps.
- name: Build And Deploy
- run : Your Update appsettings Script
To edit the Workflow file, click on the .github/workflow => .yml file
References taken from MSDoc 1 and 2.
Update
As per the discussion in GitHub, adding appsettings to the preview environment is not currently supported in the default Azure Static Web Apps CI/CD.
Setting appsettings on a specific environment is not currently supported in the Azure Static Web apps CI/CD nor by the Azure CLI.
There is a discussion in GitHub about it.

Azure devops add single configuration application setting to function app using YAML without modifying existing configuration

I need to add single application setting without modifying existing configuration for function app, I found this question Set App Service application setting from Azure DevOps yaml but looking at the solution (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/deploy/azure-app-service-settings?view=azure-devops) it looks like this will overwrite settings rather than adding new setting, I would like to just pass key and value to be added rather than writing whole appconfig.
Soulution for me was to use command from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/webapp/config/appsettings?view=azure-cli-latest#az-webapp-config-appsettings-set
az webapp config appsettings set -g GRPNAME -n APPNAME --settings dummy1=dummy1value

Azure DevOps - Azure App Service deploy - Adds Application settings WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE causes CSS to not load

In Azure DevOps we have the following Azure App Service deploy task in our release pipeline:
This works good but it adds Application settings WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE = 1 for Azure App Service
The web application starts but for some reason /lib/ionic/release/css/ionic.min.css is not loaded with this setting.
If I remove WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE and upload the exact same files via FTP everything works as expected.
I know WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE comes from the .zip file deployment but is there anyway to modify the task to simply upload a folder or do I need to use the FTP upload task then? I know WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE makes wwwroot read-only but what could be causing this? With this setting a GET to the resource simple gives the following error:
The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name
changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/run-functions-from-deployment-package
Solved the upload with FTP Upload task
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/utility/ftp-upload?view=azure-devops
However after doing this I still had the same error.
Went into App Service Console and there I could not see the file at all.
I finally solved it by looking at the file name, /lib/ionic/release/css/ionic.min.css. In our .gitignore file we exclude [Rr]elease/. Adding a ignore with !AppFolder/** solved it so the files were added to git.

Azure deployment The value of deployment parameter 'dockerRegistryUrl' is null

Trying to deploy a web app using docker-compose and azure container registry and some public images but when I get to the review it gives me this error.
The value of deployment parameter 'dockerRegistryUrl' is null. Please specify the value or use the parameter reference. See https://aka.ms/resource-manager-parameter-files for details.
here is how I'm linking the azure container registry
image: csym023.azurecr.io/csym023_api:latest
...
image: csym023.azurecr.io/csym023_app:latest
think I may have set up the docker-compose file incorrectly for the azure container registry but I am not sure. the documentation link isn't very clear to me it doesn't say anything about the 'dockerRegistryUrl' or where to upload the resource manager parameter file.
here is the Docker compose file
For your issue, actually, the "dockerRegistryUrl" is not a property in the docker-compose file, it's an environment variable of the Azure Web App for Container if you use the template.
So if you use the ACR for you images, you need to set the environment variables DOCKER-REGISTRY-SERVER-UTL, DOCKER-REGISTRY-SERVER-PASSWORD and DOCKER-REGISTRY-SERVER-USERNAME in the app settings. Also, WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE is necessary.
In addition, you need to meet the Docker compose options which supported in Azure. And you can the details here.

update ServiceConfiguration.cscfg file without need of developer

I am new to windows azure. So i am doing RnD. Can we update ServiceConfiguration.cscfg directly or we have to deploy the role through visual studio.
I am getting below error while updating ServiceConfiguration.cscfg. or we can't update it for staging environment?
"The configuration could not be uploaded for the staging deployment of cloud service ."
Not 100% sure what you're trying to do but there are two scenarios where you would be updating the config file:
You are changing value of an existing item in config file: If all you want to do is change the value of an existing item in the config file, you can do it through Azure Portal as well. There's no need to redeploy the application.
You have added/removed an item in config file: If you have added a new entry in the config file or removed an existing entry from the config file, then you have to redeploy your role.
