Question

How can we use NuGet packages in my Azure Functions?

Answer 1

Azure Functions portal does not currently provide a mechanism to add and manage NuGet packages, the runtime supports NuGet references and will make sure they are correctly used when compiling and executing your functions.

Here is an example that adds a reference:

{

  "frameworks": {

    "net46":{

      "dependencies": {

        "Microsoft.ProjectOxford.Face": "1.1.0"

      }

    }

   }

}
