   i have the following top level statements in function_app.py that i use for local debug - 2 slightly different approaches, depending on if you want handle some specific logging types or not. (watch out that all http posts done are at logging info, so this can spew lots of logs)

   # copy logs to standard output
   logging.basicConfig(
       level=logging.INFO,
       format='%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s',
       stream=sys.stdout,
   )
   
   # This will print detailed logs from the Azure Identity library to your console
   #logger = logging.getLogger('azure.identity')
   #logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
   #handler = logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout)
   #handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s'))
   #logger.addHandler(handler)

   Andrew Hill (@AartBluestoke) thanks for the comment but I think neither will help. basicConfig can't work as there are existing handlers. Adding a custom handler to print to stdout might work in local, but not sure if it will go to the logs tab in azure or application insights.
