Mobile Apps bindings for Azure Functions

Note

Azure Mobile Apps bindings are only available to Azure Functions 1.x. They are not supported in Azure Functions 2.x and higher.

This article explains how to work with Azure Mobile Apps bindings in Azure Functions. Azure Functions supports input and output bindings for Mobile Apps.

The Mobile Apps bindings let you read and update data tables in mobile apps.

Mobile Apps bindings are provided in the Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.MobileApps NuGet package, version 1.x. Source code for the package is in the azure-webjobs-sdk-extensions GitHub repository.

The following table lists how to add support for output binding in each development environment.

The Mobile Apps input binding loads a record from a mobile table endpoint and passes it into your function. In C# and F# functions, any changes made to the record are automatically sent back to the table when the function exits successfully.

See the language-specific example:

• C# script
• JavaScript

The following example shows a Mobile Apps input binding in a function.json file and a C# script function that uses the binding. The function is triggered by a queue message that has a record identifier. The function reads the specified record and modifies its Text property.

Here's the binding data in the function.json file:

{
"bindings": [
    {
        "name": "myQueueItem",
        "queueName": "myqueue-items",
        "connection": "",
        "type": "queueTrigger",
        "direction": "in"
    },
    {
        "name": "record",
        "type": "mobileTable",
        "tableName": "MyTable",
        "id": "{queueTrigger}",
        "connection": "My_MobileApp_Url",
        "apiKey": "My_MobileApp_Key",
        "direction": "in"
    }
]
}

The configuration section explains these properties.

Here's the C# script code:

#r "Newtonsoft.Json"    
using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;

public static void Run(string myQueueItem, JObject record)
{
    if (record != null)
    {
        record["Text"] = "This has changed.";
    }    
}

The following example shows a Mobile Apps input binding in a function.json file and a JavaScript function that uses the binding. The function is triggered by a queue message that has a record identifier. The function reads the specified record and modifies its Text property.

Here's the binding data in the function.json file:

{
"bindings": [
    {
        "name": "myQueueItem",
        "queueName": "myqueue-items",
        "connection": "",
        "type": "queueTrigger",
        "direction": "in"
    },
    {
        "name": "record",
        "type": "mobileTable",
        "tableName": "MyTable",
        "id": "{queueTrigger}",
        "connection": "My_MobileApp_Url",
        "apiKey": "My_MobileApp_Key",
        "direction": "in"
    }
]
}

The configuration section explains these properties.

Here's the JavaScript code:

module.exports = async function (context, myQueueItem) {    
    context.log(context.bindings.record);
};

In C# class libraries, use the MobileTable attribute.

For information about attribute properties that you can configure, see the following configuration section.

The following table explains the binding configuration properties that you set in the function.json file and the MobileTable attribute.

When you're developing locally, add your application settings in the local.settings.json file in the Values collection.

Important

Don't share the API key with your mobile app clients. It should only be distributed securely to service-side clients, like Azure Functions. Azure Functions stores your connection information and API keys as app settings so that they are not checked into your source control repository. This safeguards your sensitive information.

In C# functions, when the record with the specified ID is found, it is passed into the named JObject parameter. When the record is not found, the parameter value is null.

In JavaScript functions, the record is passed into the context.bindings.<name> object. When the record is not found, the parameter value is null.

In C# and F# functions, any changes you make to the input record (input parameter) are automatically sent back to the table when the function exits successfully. You can't modify a record in JavaScript functions.

Use the Mobile Apps output binding to write a new record to a Mobile Apps table.

• C#
• C# script
• JavaScript

The following example shows a C# function that is triggered by a queue message and creates a record in a mobile app table.

[FunctionName("MobileAppsOutput")]        
[return: MobileTable(ApiKeySetting = "MyMobileAppKey", TableName = "MyTable", MobileAppUriSetting = "MyMobileAppUri")]
public static object Run(
    [QueueTrigger("myqueue-items", Connection = "AzureWebJobsStorage")] string myQueueItem,
    TraceWriter log)
{
    return new { Text = $"I'm running in a C# function! {myQueueItem}" };
}

The following example shows a Mobile Apps output binding in a function.json file and a C# script function that uses the binding. The function is triggered by a queue message and creates a new record with hard-coded value for the Text property.

Here's the binding data in the function.json file:

{
"bindings": [
    {
        "name": "myQueueItem",
        "queueName": "myqueue-items",
        "connection": "",
        "type": "queueTrigger",
        "direction": "in"
    },
    {
        "name": "record",
        "type": "mobileTable",
        "tableName": "MyTable",
        "connection": "My_MobileApp_Url",
        "apiKey": "My_MobileApp_Key",
        "direction": "out"
    }
]
}

The configuration section explains these properties.

Here's the C# script code:

public static void Run(string myQueueItem, out object record)
{
    record = new {
        Text = $"I'm running in a C# function! {myQueueItem}"
    };
}

The following example shows a Mobile Apps output binding in a function.json file and a JavaScript function that uses the binding. The function is triggered by a queue message and creates a new record with hard-coded value for the Text property.

Here's the binding data in the function.json file:

{
"bindings": [
    {
        "name": "myQueueItem",
        "queueName": "myqueue-items",
        "connection": "",
        "type": "queueTrigger",
        "direction": "in"
    },
    {
        "name": "record",
        "type": "mobileTable",
        "tableName": "MyTable",
        "connection": "My_MobileApp_Url",
        "apiKey": "My_MobileApp_Key",
        "direction": "out"
    }
],
"disabled": false
}

The configuration section explains these properties.

Here's the JavaScript code:

module.exports = async function (context, myQueueItem) {

    context.bindings.record = {
        text : "I'm running in a Node function! Data: '" + myQueueItem + "'"
    }   
};

In C# class libraries, use the MobileTable attribute.

For information about attribute properties that you can configure, see Output - configuration. Here's a MobileTable attribute example in a method signature:

• C#

[FunctionName("MobileAppsOutput")]        
[return: MobileTable(ApiKeySetting = "MyMobileAppKey", TableName = "MyTable", MobileAppUriSetting = "MyMobileAppUri")]
public static object Run(
    [QueueTrigger("myqueue-items", Connection = "AzureWebJobsStorage")] string myQueueItem,
    TraceWriter log)
{
    ...
}

The following table explains the binding configuration properties that you set in the function.json file and the MobileTable attribute.

When you're developing locally, add your application settings in the local.settings.json file in the Values collection.

Important

Don't share the API key with your mobile app clients. It should only be distributed securely to service-side clients, like Azure Functions. Azure Functions stores your connection information and API keys as app settings so that they are not checked into your source control repository. This safeguards your sensitive information.

In C# script functions, use a named output parameter of type out object to access the output record. In C# class libraries, the MobileTable attribute can be used with any of the following types:

• ICollector<T> or IAsyncCollector<T>, where T is either JObject or any type with a public string Id property.
• out JObject
• out T or out T[], where T is any Type with a public string Id property.

In Node.js functions, use context.bindings.<name> to access the output record.
