Can I use GetAzureADAppOnlyAuthenticatedContext in Azure Functions?

I am trying out using SharePoint webhooks with Azure Functions. I have the webhook functioning okay, but looking at the authentication options for calling back into SharePoint, I would like to be able to use the GetAzureADAppOnlyAuthenticatedContext from the function.

 

I have watched the webcast on Authentication Manager;

https://dev.office.com/blogs/Introduction-to-authentication-manager-in-pnp-core-library

 

I have 2 questions;

  1. Is it possible to use GetAzureADAppOnlyAuthenticatedContext from an Azure Function and is there any guidance if it is?
  2. What is the recommended authentication model from Azure functions to SharePoint?

 

Thanks

      Hi, thanks for the response.

       

      Yes, I am planning to try that, but I was hoping to work out whether the new Azure AD methods are an option in this scenario.

       

      Thanks
