Environment variables in separate menu/tab on Azure Portal App service Settings

I am working on a user guide for our azure appservices on the portal and I ran into a strange thing: For our developer the Application settings tab is no longer under the Configuration menu, but under the Settings group in a new Environment Variables menu. He made no changes, no background scripts. I see appsettings in the old place. Is this something configurable? Or is this related to access levels on the portal(As far as I know we have the exact same roles and accesses with the dev)?

Dev:

dev

dev2

Mine:

I just want to make sure, that our customer and we see the same, or if I should cover both options in our documentation and I couldn’t find anything about this on MS pages or in google.

Thank you! 🙂

    • The Application Settings tab has been moved to a new location under the Settings=>Environment Variables, it’s a recent Microsoft update.
    • This change doesn’t have any impact the functionality; it’s just a reorganization/ UI Change within the portal.
    • All the new applications will have this latest UI.

    • And General Settings under Configuration section.

    • The Environment Variables provide a way to manage the application settings of your application which can be customized based on the app’s requirements.
    • This update is to improve the organization and accessibility of settings in the Azure App Services portal.

    This change does not seem to affect all users?
    I’m teaching a computer science class, and some see the change, others, including myself, dont.
    What is worse is, that this change does seem to impact functionality. With the change it seems like environment variables has to be included in the *.yml file when github actions is use for CI/CD. I really don’t see why, since these should only be used at runtime, that is when the jar-file is execute
