I have deployed a container in azure portal using docker image from docker's public repository. I have supplied an environment variable (connection string) during deployment. I would like to update the environment variable(connection string).Is there is a way for that?

    Albin Lukose ,

    To update any container you will have to make use of : az container create with options

    (See the below document along with the commands)

    https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-update

    To create the container with environment variables:

    https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-environment-variables

    Also there are some properties which can't be updated but that needs container to be re-created:

    https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-update#properties-that-require-container-delete

    So for Azure Container Instances, those are the only options which are provided as of now.

    Kindly explore those options !!

    Regards,

    Shiva.
