Answer 1

To use a certificate that is uploaded to or imported into App Service, first make it accessible to your application code. You do this with the WEBSITE_LOAD_CERTIFICATES app setting. For more detail information, please refer to Use an SSL certificate in your application code in Azure App Service.

Add an app setting called WEBSITE_LOAD_CERTIFICATES and set its value to the thumbprint of the certificate. To make multiple certificates accessible, use comma-separated thumbprint values. To make all certificates accessible, set the value to *.
