How can I convert emf (image/x-emf) files to png without using "MetaFile class" which seems to not work in Azure Web Apps. It works on self hosted sites.
I don't seem to find any alternative.

Here is someone who seems to have similar error:
Calling Chart.SaveImage() in Azure WebApp results in GDI+ Exception for ChartImageFormat.EMF only
Azure Web App runs in sandbox, some GDI+ components do not have permission. Please refer to this article for more information about Azure Web App sandbox. For this scenario, please try to use cloud service or azure VM.

So I have a requirement to process a file when it is uploaded to a particular folder in OneDrive. An Azure Function would be nice to use for this purpose.
Here's what I see when trying to set this up in the Azure portal:
Is it even possible to do this in the portal either v3 or v2 of the Azure Functions runtime? I tried to follow the steps documented here but I find them a little less-explicit and difficult to interpret/follow.
If anyone has any better examples to follow, please be so kind to share. I'm confused as to what approach to take (e.g. portal, VS Code, VS)
Currently it is recommended that we use the classic function UI in azure portal as there are some issues in the new UI.
And I found that Microsoft Graph bindings are currently in preview for Azure Functions version 2.x and higher. For preview version, we don't recommend that you use them in your production apps.
The workaround is that you use Azure Logic Apps instead.

I faced with follow problem hope I can find the way for solving with your help.
I created follow Azure resources:
WebApp Service (Asp.Net Core web application)
FileStorage
VirtualNetwork
All resources created in one resources group. I trying to upload file from my WebApp to File storage via VNet (I need to secure storage so it must be unaccessable from outside internet).
Virtual Network have subnet, wich have setup a Microsoft.Storage - Service endpoints. This sub net is included In Storage firewall settings.
For work with Azure storage I use Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage package.
When I trying to get access to storage from webapp I get 403 error.
For access I use 'primary file service endpoint' - https://myaccount.file.core.windows.net/
What I have missed ?
Thnx for any advice !
Azure File shares can’t be accessed from Azure App Service web apps. Refer this feedback item where the feature was declined.
I'm new to azure, and I'm trying to setup a single page website(web api 2). How can I limit access to my services so only my website can use it?
I know that I can use app services to setup my web applications/services but as far as i understand it will be open to everyone.
I also read about APIs, but Api management service seems very expensive and advanced for such a simple task. Is there any options? Am I in the wrong track?
Update
Ok, I saw the link for filtering based on IP. But as I've mentioned that single page application also is hosted on Azure. There is no static IP. If that is the way, I still need to know how you will find out about the IPRange.
App Service to use different authentication providers Azure Active Directory,Facebook,Google,Microsoft,Twitter.
We can set any type of Authentication/Authorization in the Azure Portal.More info about how to use authentication for API Apps in Azure App Service, please refer to document.
I have been struggling to find some resources that help explain, how we use the File Storage with Web App Service.
There are ways to use it with the old Web Roles, Check here (Using the Azure File Service in your Cloud Services (Web and Worker Roles)).
However, there is NO OnStart() methods in "Azure Web Service".
If you're looking for mapping a drive to your Azure File Service share in your Web App using SMB protocol, then I don't think you can do as of today.
What you could do is make use of Azure File Service REST API and manipulate shares and files that way. You don't have to actually use the REST API per se; you can simply use the latest version of .Net Storage Client library which is a wrapper over REST API.
Please see this link for more details on how to use this using Storage Client library: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/storage-dotnet-how-to-use-files/.
Yes, you can. In Linux Web Apps and Windows Containers Web Apps only.
In the Web App, under Application Settings you will find Mount storage (Preview) section where you can mount Storage account. Works like a charm.
Below is the task i have to complete in a few weeks, my question is does anyone know of any tutorials or books which will be of use to me? I also only have little knowledge of C#.
You will design the relevant code in ASP.NET and C# so that you can
deploy a web role on Azure that can:
a) read in a zip file from input on the web page
b) uncompress the zip file which will have an executable, an
arbitrary list of arguments and data files
c) run the executable with the arguments (and hence read in the
data files).
d) store the output logs for access later.
You will test this by running a piece of code that reads in a set of
arguments which correspond to test files.
The executable will then read in the text files and then print them
out.
You will also have to design an appropriate UML to explain how the
different classes you have written interact.
You can deploy your service/role to Azure using Service Management API. Write a module which does the deployment and call this in your web.

The Windows Azure Accelerator for Web Roles makes it quick and easy

Hope these help you to get an idea that you want to implement.
That's hard homework: Upload a zip file to a cloud based server and run the .exe. Interesting...
Anyway, the Azure SDK is a great place to start. Also scan through Smarx's Cloud Cover shows. They cover pretty much everything.
