+
+This tutorial shows how to build, configure and deploy your Ktor application to [Azure App Service](https://azure.microsoft.com/products/app-service/).
+
+## Prerequisites {id="prerequisites"}
+Before starting this tutorial, you will need the following:
+* An Azure account ([Free trial here](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/)).
+* The [Azure CLI](https://learn.microsoft.com/cli/azure/install-azure-cli) installed on your machine.
+
+## Create a sample application {id="create-sample-app"}
+
+Create a sample application as described in [](server-create-a-new-project.topic). This example shows code and commands based on the following projects: [embedded-server](https://github.com/ktorio/ktor-documentation/tree/%ktor_version%/codeSnippets/snippets/embedded-server) and [engine-main](https://github.com/ktorio/ktor-documentation/tree/%ktor_version%/codeSnippets/snippets/engine-main).
+
+> The tutorial above provides two ways to configure your application: either by specifying values directly in the code or by using a configuration file. In both cases, the key configuration is the port on which the server listens for incoming requests.
+
+## Set up the application {id="setup-app"}
+
+### Step 1: Set up the port {id="port"}
+
+In Azure App Service, the environment variable `PORT` contains the port number open for incoming requests. Depending on how you created the app in [configure a Ktor server](server-create-and-configure.topic), you'll need to update your code to read this environment variable in one of two places:
+
+* If you used the example with port configuration **in code**, the `PORT` environment variable can be read with `System.getenv()` and parsed to an integer with `.toIntOrNull()`. Open the file `Application.kt` and change the port number as shown below:
+
+   ```kotlin
+   fun runBasicServer() {
+      val port = System.getenv("PORT")?.toIntOrNull() ?: 8080
+      embeddedServer(Netty, port = port) {
+          // ...
+      }.start(wait = true)
+   }
+    ```
+* If the server configuration is defined **in the config file** `application.conf`, update it to read the `PORT` environment variable as in the following example:
+
+   ```
+   ktor {
+       deployment {
+           port = ${PORT:8080}
+       }
+   }
+   ```
+   {style="block"}
+
+### Step 2: Add plugins {id="plugins"}
+Open the `build.gradle.kts` file and add the following lines to the `plugins` section:
+```kotlin
+plugins {
+    application
+    kotlin("jvm")
+    id("io.ktor.plugin") version "%ktor_version%" // ADDED
+    id("com.microsoft.azure.azurewebapp") version "1.10.0" // ADDED
+}
+```
+
+The `io.ktor.plugin` will provide the task used to create a [fat JAR](server-fatjar.md) and the [Azure WebApp Plugin for Gradle](https://github.com/microsoft/azure-gradle-plugins) will be used to create all the required resources in Azure with ease.
+
+Make sure a `mainClass` is defined in the `application` section, so that there's a well-defined entry point for your fat JAR:
+
+```kotlin
+application {
+    mainClass.set("com.example.ApplicationKt")
+}
+```
+If you created the project with the `engine-main` template, the main class will look like the following:
+
+```kotlin
+application {
+    mainClass.set("io.ktor.server.netty.EngineMain")
+}
+```
+
+
+### Step 3: Configuration {id="configuration"}
+
+If you already created a Java web app in App Service that you want to deploy to, you can skip this step.
+
+Otherwise, add the following entries to `build.gradle.kts` at the end of the file so that the Azure Webapp Plugin creates one for you:
+
+```kotlin
+ // Rename the fat JAR to the name that the deploy task expects
+ktor {
+    fatJar {
+        archiveFileName.set("embedded-server.jar")
+    }
+}
+
+// Disable the `jar` task that Azure Plugin would normally run
+// to deploy the archive created by the `fatJar` task instead
+tasks.named("jar") {
+    enabled = false
+}
+
+// Ensure the deploy task builds the fat JAR first
+tasks.named("azureWebAppDeploy") {
+    dependsOn("buildFatJar")
+}
+
+// Azure Webapp Plugin configuration
+azurewebapp {
+  subscription = "YOUR-SUBSCRIPTION-ID"
+  resourceGroup = "RESOURCE-GROUP-NAME"
+  appName = "WEBAPP-NAME"
+  pricingTier = "YOUR-PLAN" // e.g. "F1", "B1", "P0v3", etc.
+  region = "YOUR-REGION" // e.g. "westus2"
+  setRuntime(closureOf<com.microsoft.azure.gradle.configuration.GradleRuntimeConfig> {
+    os("Linux") // Or "Windows"
+    webContainer("Java SE")
+    javaVersion("Java 21")
+  })
+  setAuth(closureOf<com.microsoft.azure.gradle.auth.GradleAuthConfig> {
+    type = "azure_cli"
+  })
+}
+```
+
+For detailed descriptions of the available configuration properties, see [the Webapp Configuration documentation](https://github.com/microsoft/azure-gradle-plugins/wiki/Webapp-Configuration).
+
+* The values for `pricingTier` (Service Plan) can be found [for Linux](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/app-service/linux/) and [for Windows](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/app-service/windows/).
+* The list of values for `region` can be obtained with the following Azure CLI command: `az account list-locations --query "[].name" --output tsv` or by searching for "App Service" in [the Product Availability table](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2300348&clcid=0x409).
+
+## Deploy the application {id="deploy-app"}
+
+### To a new web app
+
+The authentication method used by the Azure Web App Deploy plugin uses the Azure CLI. If you haven't already, log in once with `az login` and follow the instructions.
+
+Finally, deploy the application by running the `azureWebAppDeploy` task, which is set to build the fat JAR first and then deploy:
+
+<tabs group="os">
+<tab title="Linux/macOS" group-key="unix">
+<code-block>./gradlew :embedded-server:azureWebAppDeploy</code-block>
+</tab>
+<tab title="Windows" group-key="windows">
+<code-block>gradlew.bat :embedded-server:azureWebAppDeploy</code-block>
+</tab>
+</tabs>
+
+This task will create the resource group, plan, and web app, and then deploy the fat JAR. When the deployment succeeds, you should see output like the following:
+
+```text
+> Task: :embedded-server:azureWebAppDeploy
+Auth type: AZURE_CLI
+Username: some.username@example.com
+Subscription: Some Subscription(13936cf1-cc18-40be-a0d4-177fe532b3dd)
+Start creation Resource Group(resource-group) in region (Some Region)
+Resource Group (resource-group) is successfully created.
+Start creating App Service plan (asp-your-webapp-name)...
+App Service plan (asp-your-webapp-name) is successfully created
+Start creating Web App(your-webapp-name)...
+Web App(your-webapp-name) is successfully created
+Trying to deploy artifact to your-webapp-name...
+Deploying (C:\docs\ktor-documentation\codeSnippets\snippets\embedded-server\build\libs\embedded-server.jar)[jar] ...
+Application url: https://your-webapp-name.azurewebsites.net
+```
+
+When the deployment completes, you should be able to see your new web app running at the URL shown above.
+
+### To an existing web app
+
+If you already have an existing Java web app in Azure App Service, first build the fat JAR by executing the `buildFatJar` task provided by the [Ktor plugin](#plugins):
+
+<tabs group="os">
+<tab title="Linux/macOS" group-key="unix">
+<code-block>./gradlew :embedded-server:buildFatJar</code-block>
+</tab>
+<tab title="Windows" group-key="windows">
+<code-block>gradlew.bat :embedded-server:buildFatJar</code-block>
+</tab>
+</tabs>
+
+Then, deploy the fat JAR created earlier using the following command of the Azure CLI:
+
+```bash
+az webapp deploy -g RESOURCE-GROUP-NAME -n WEBAPP-NAME --src-path ./path/to/embedded-server.jar --restart true
+```
+
+This command will upload the JAR file and restart your web app. After a while, you should see the result of the deployment:
+
+```text
+Deployment type: jar. To override deployment type, please specify the --type parameter. Possible values: war, jar, ear, zip, startup, script, static
+Initiating deployment
+Deploying from local path: ./snippets/embedded-server/build/libs/embedded-server.jar
