If you're publishing your app to Azure, you can now configure Azure App Service to use Azure Storage and Azure SQL Database instances right from the summary page in your publish profile without leaving Visual Studio. This means that for any existing web application running in App Service, you can add SQL and Storage as it is no longer limited to creation time only.
By clicking the "Add" button, you can choose between Azure Storage and Azure SQL Database (more Azure services will be supported in the future):
and then you can choose between using the existing Azure Storage instance you provisioned earlier, or provisioning the new one right now:
When configuring Azure App Service through a publish profile as shown above, Visual Studio will update the application settings in Azure App Service to include the connection strings you configured (for example, azgist in this case). Studio will also apply hidden tags to instances in Azure about how they are configured to work together so that this information is not lost and can be later rediscovered by other instances of Visual Studio.
