Calling Azure Function app works in console but not in xamarin forms

So I created a function which is a Get request. All the function does is retrieves some data from an SQL database and returns it.

I call this function in a console app, just to test it, and all is working as it should. I then copy the code and paste it into my xamarin.forms app for android. When I run it it immediately gives me a 404 Not found response.

Any idea why it's not working in the xamarin app but is working in the console app?

using (var client = new HttpClient())
        using (var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, "http://{MySite}.azurewebsites.net/api/{myfunction}/"))
        using (var httpContent = CreateHttpContent(new DiaryDate() { Date = DateTime.Today }))
        {
            request.Content = httpContent;
            
            using (var response = await client
                .SendAsync(request, HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead, cancellationToken)
                .ConfigureAwait(false))
            {
                if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
                {
                    // do something
                }
            }
        }

CreateHttpContent just converts the given object to JSON.
