Azure WebJobs Logging

There are multiple ways to enable logging inside your Azure Web Job.

Console.WriteLine

One option that works if you created a C# console application, is using the Console.WriteLine() or Console.Write() methods on the Console object.

Inject a TextWriter

Another option is injecting a TextWriter into one of the WebJobs methods:

	public static void ShutdownMonitor(
	[QueueTrigger("%ShutdownQueueName%")] string message,
	TextWriter log,
	CancellationToken cancelToken)
	{
	log.WriteLine("From function: Received a message: " + message);
	while (!cancelToken.IsCancellationRequested)
	{
	log.WriteLine("From function: Cancelled: No");
	Thread.Sleep(2000);
	}
	// Perform the graceful shutdown logic here
	log.WriteLine("From function: Cancelled: Yes");
	}
