Question

A transit teammate wants one Azure Function that is both HTTP-triggered and timer-triggered to save a file. What is the correct design?

Accepted Answer

Split into two functions (they may share helpers or output bindings) because each function has exactly one trigger — One function, one doorbell—that’s the rule. Need HTTP and a nightly timer? Make two functions and share the helper code; don’t duct-tape two triggers onto one.

Answer

Declare both an HTTP trigger and a timer trigger on the same function.json bindings array as co-primary triggers

Answer

Use Durable Functions solely so multiple triggers can attach to one activity name without splitting

Answer

Convert the Function app to Logic Apps so multiple recurrence and HTTP receivers share one workflow definition as the Functions rule
