HowTo: Deploy Web App to Azure

After you created your web app, now it is time to deploy them to Azure. There are multiple ways to do it. You can manually copy the files through FTP or doing it directly in an IDE such as Visual Studio.

Using FTP Servers (Manually)


  1. Set up a deployment credential from your Azure Portal. Set a new deployment username and password so your FTP is able to connect to your web app.
  2. Connect to your FTP Server using your favorite FTP Client. You can find your ftp address in your web app settings page.
  3. Copy your desired files and folders to /site/wwwroot directory in Azure.

Using IDE (Visual Studio)

  1. Right clicking on Solution Manager, choose Publish.
  2. On the window that popped up, choose Microsoft Azure Web Apps as a publish target.
  3. On Connections tab, enter the ftp server address and its credentials. You can find your ftp address and your credential in your web app settings page.
  4. Click on Publish.
