Web Service in Azure

Viewed 81

I am trying to recreate a web service in Azure. The web service needs to get data from an Azure database that needs to be exposed to SharePoint online.

The only options when I get when creating a web service in the azure Portal are as follows

  • Web App
  • Web App + SQL
  • Function App

Do I need to create a Function app instead?. Is a Function app equivalent to an On premise Web service.

It depends on what kind of web service you want to host in Azure. E. g. if you have a dotnet / dotnet Core REST API, you probably want to create an API App (just search for API App).
