Getting started with Azure App Configuration | Azure Friday

Azure App Configuration is a service that enables you to centralize your application configuration. Built on the simple concept of key-value pairs, this service provides manageability, availability, and ease-of-use. You can use Azure App Configuration to store and retrieve settings for applications, microservices, platforms, and CI/CD pipelines.

Is this appropriate for storing secrets? Or is there integration with key vault?

Is it possible to use Azure App Configuration in a service fabric project. It easy to implement it in web api. But using Azure App Configuration service in a service fabric is causing the build server to fail as it is still looking for environment variables. There is poor documentation for service fabric and app configuration.

You should explain how to set configuration programmatically through c#. The documentation for setting configuration NOT using the cli or portal is horrible.

would be nice to see a workable solution that includes storage of password. Otherwise it seems a bit of overkill to keep settings in one place and passwords in another

Azure needs a developer free platform how else can we as developers creat these apps for our customers any wonder people still stick to api and sql services.
