title: Azure resource manager template website app settings
body: <p>I am trying to add app settings to my Azure Website via the JSON template files as part of the Azure Resource Manager.</p>
  
  <p>In an Azure Resource template json file, there are examples for creating connectionStrings directly from the JSON template file with a sub-dependency of type 'config' with properties for 'connectionStrings' as in the final example here <a href="http://haishibai.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/tutorial-building-azure-template.html" rel="noreferrer">http://haishibai.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/tutorial-building-azure-template.html</a> I have also checked in the website schema definition for websites here <a href="http://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2014-06-01/Microsoft.Web.json#/definitions/sites" rel="noreferrer">http://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2014-06-01/Microsoft.Web.json#/definitions/sites</a> and cannot see that it is possible.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to define a websites app settings for resource manager deployments from the JSON template file? And if so any links or details would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>(I have already tried properties of appSettings inside the config resource and inside the website resource)</p>
