  # Setting Up IronPDF on Azure IronPDF works in Azure WebApps, Functions, and WebJobs when using the **Basic B1 tier or higher**, or the **Premium Plan**. The Free and Shared tiers, as well as the Consumption Plan, are not suitable for PDF rendering because they lack the CPU and memory resources (and sandbox permissions) needed to run IronPDF's embedded Chromium browser engine. However, these restrictions do not apply to Linux or Windows in Docker containers. [[i:(The Golden Rule: When deploying Azure Functions with the native `IronPdf` package, ensure that *"Run from package file"* is **NOT** checked in Azure Publishing Config. With `IronPdf.Slim` and a remote IronPdfEngine, the option can stay enabled from IronPDF `2026.8.1` onward.
