Web API setup under Azure

[SBarnes]

Hi Mike,

Are you any closer to a set of instructions for deploying the Web API under Azure.

I would assume that if I attempt it manually, that currently you could create a web app and then do an ftp deploy and then edit the app settings through the Azure Console and have the database in SQL Azure, but how do you get around the need for a Jiwa connection to be set up?

Thanks.

Yes - just create an Azure App service, then FTP the files up there.

but how do you get around the need for a Jiwa connection to be set up?

I don't understand... you just edit the .config file which contains the connection details - servername (the azure SQL server name), database name, jiwa username and password.

EDIT: Note you want the contents of the JiwaAPI.zip located in the JiwaAPI folder when Jiwa is installed to a local machine.

Ah my mistake, I had assume the config was the same as the service, I should have checked first.

Thanks.
