Is there a way to fire webjob without using a queue or blob storage?

Question

I have created a webjob which i want to be triggered only manually and not using a queue or blob. Is there any way to do so?

Answer 1

Yes, you create an On Demand Task then you use the portal to run it.

Answer 2

I thought the Azure admin console exposes a button to manually initiate a webjob when its how to run option is neither scheduled or continuous. My answer assumes the person who wants to run the webjob manually is the website owner/administrator.
