BobbyJ10 I just tried this on a Linux plan in Azure and see the authentication features lit up. We also have a walk-through on it here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/tutorial-auth-aad?pivots=platform-linux Can you outline what challenges you're having?

Thanks CloudyRyan, specifically when a Linux based Azure Function App (say Python) on the consumption plan has the Authentication/Authorization option greyed out on the Function App page in the Azure Portal.

BobbyJ10 Interesting -- I see it enabled. Can you tell me the plan you're using?

  CloudyRyanDouble checked mine to make sure I'm not going mad 🙂 It's definitely greyed out. creation.png shows the option chosen when creating the function app, and app service plan.png shows the plan type (Y1: 0).

    Got it. My example was not the consumption plan and I missed that in the subject. That is coming soon for the consumption plan.
