Research direction

Start by comparing the successful VS Code deployment with the Azure-generated GitHub Actions workflow. The issue needs reproducible deployment steps, the workflow, requirements.txt, and deployment logs before the failure can be isolated. Done means the function is discoverable and works after deployment through GitHub Actions.

Description

area:python-functions bug deployment-related
Expected Behavior

I have been trying for days to get this to work.
I can deploy my function app from the VS Code extension and it works fine.
I am deploying using Github Actions, the exact script that is generated for me by Azure.
All my tests are passing in my Github Actions pipeline.
There are no errors in the pipeline.
It says deployment was successful. After deployment my function cannot be found.

It is SO frustrating to me that I can easily deploy using a click from VS Code, but the EXACT SAME CODE, pushed in the exact way that Azure recommends, does not work.
