Azure Application Settings not overriding my appsettings.json file values

I have tried adding DefaultConnection from my appsettings.json file to Azure's Application Settings but Azure will not override the connection string.

Any article or blog I can find states that all I should need to do is add the connection string name as it states in the appsettings.json file and Azure should do the rest (e.g. https://tehremo.wordpress.com/2016/10/07/override-connection-strings-app-settings-in-asp-net-core-and-azure-app-service/) however when the application is published it is using my local connection string.

My Startup.cs file looks like the following:

NOTE: I am publishing using VSTS continuous delivery with "Deploy Azure App Service" release task.
