Solution 1:

I tried to realize your needs with Python in WebJob and successfully make it works.

Here is my steps and sample code. My local environment is Python 3.7 on Windows 10.

1. Create a Python virtual environment and install python-telegram-bot package via commands as below.

   $ mkdir telegram-webjob$ virtualenv telegram-webjob$ cd telegram-webjob$ Scripts\active$ pip install python-telegram-bot$ pip freeze

   

2. I changed your code as my sample code, then run it works fine on local, as below.

   import telegram
   from datetime import datetime as dt
   
   my_token = '<my token>'
   bot = telegram.Bot(token = my_token)
   
   chat_id = '<chat id>'
   message = f"Hello at {dt.now()}"
   bot.sendMessage(chat_id=chat_id, text=message)
   

   

   

3. I created a new directoy named webjob and copy my trading.py file and all directories with their files into it, as below.

   

4. Write the startup bat script named run.bat, the code as below.

   D:\home\python364x86\python.exe trading.py

   The D:\home\python364x86\python.exe path is the python364x86 site extension installed path as the figure below.

   

5. Then, I packaged the all directories and files in the webjob directory as a zip file, as below.

   

6. I uploaded it to Azure WebApp as a webjob, as the figure below, and start it.

   

   

Finally, it works fine for me and I can see the message interval 10 sec displayed in my telegram client.
