I am currently trying out a lot with Azure Functions. With CI / CD pipelines and how to automatically deploy them. But also trying out C# and PowerShell to be used with Azure Functions.

Recently I had to make another ARM-Template for a project which only lives on Azure. Unfortunately all resources were already created on Azure and I needed to kind reverse engineer all configurations. Within that I came along some problems.
