Run a manual backup

To test the backup process, you can run a manual backup from the Azure portal.

In the resource group, locate the function app resource.

In the function app, go to Functions, then open the backupAzureTables function.

In the Code + Test blade, click Test/Run in the top menu, then click Run.

You will see the output of the backup run in the logging window. You can view this any time using the Monitor tab of the function, or in the application insights instance.

To check your backup, open the storage account containing the tables you have backed up in the Azure portal. In the Storage browser, open the tablebackups container.

You will see your backup CSV file in the container.
