Webapp:Multiple bugs - `az webapp config appsettings set` command

[flyingUnderTheRadar]

Facing two problems

• az webapp config appsettings set -g $ResourceGroupName -n "app-name" --settings SettingKey=$SettingValue SettingKey2=$SettingValue2 does not work even though the settings are space separated, it errors out. If it is set as a string it puts all of it in the one config setting (with the "()" for keyvault reference. This is relevant for the next problem.)
• az webapp config appsettings set -g $ResourceGroupName -n "app-name" --settings SettingKey=$SettingValue - Does not work properly if the $SettingValue is a keyvault reference. It sets the value in the web app but omits the last ')' causing it to not be a valid keyvault reference string.

I know this is an avenue is for page feed back, but please let me know who I can get in touch with to resolve this issue on the product itself.

@flyingUnderTheRadar Can you try putting quotations around your settings like so: --settings 'SettingKey=$SettingValue' 'SettingKey2=$SettingValue2' and let me know if the problem still persists

Appreciate your response. Ended doing doing something different. Don't have it set up to test anymore.

However just for others I ended up having to use powershell like this to make it work

$SecretKVReference= '"@Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri={0})"' -f $SecretString
$AnotherSecretKVReference= '"@Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri={0})"' -f $AnotherSecretString

az webapp config appsettings set -g $ResourceGroupName -n $WebAppName `
    --settings SecretString=$SecretKVReference AnotherSecretKVReference=$AnotherSecretKVReference

Correction: I know this is a pretty old issue, but this solution doesn't work actually... When you single quote, the $settingValue doesn't get resolved any more.

This works for me:

--settings DB_PASS='"@Microsoft.KeyVault(VaultName='$kv';SecretName=DbPassword)"'
