In [Azure App Service](overview.md), you can run your apps directly from a deployment ZIP package file. This article shows how to enable this functionality in your app.

All other deployment methods in App Service have something in common: your files are deployed to *D:\home\site\wwwroot* in your app (or */home/site/wwwroot* for Linux apps). Since the same directory is used by your app at runtime, it's possible for deployment to fail because of file lock conflicts, and for the app to behave unpredictably because some of the files are not yet updated.

Since the same directory is used by your app at runtime, it's possible for deployment to fail because of file lock conflicts, and for the app to behave unpredictably because some of the files are not yet updated. To enable this setting, you do not need to assign any value to the `WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE` variable or you can remove it entirely.

Instead, the ZIP package itself gets mounted directly as the read-only *wwwroot* directory. To enable this setting, set `WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE`=1 or provide the URL of the ZIP file.

Because the `WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE` app setting is set, this command doesn't extract the package content to the *D:\home\site\wwwroot* directory of your app. Instead, it uploads the ZIP file as-is to *D:\home\data\SitePackages*, and creates a *packagename.txt* in the same directory, that contains the name of the ZIP package to load at runtime. If you upload your ZIP package in a different way (such as [FTP](deploy-ftp.md)), you need to create the *D:\home\data\SitePackages* directory and the *packagename.txt* file manually.

The command also restarts the app. Because `WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE` is set, App Service mounts the uploaded package as the read-only *wwwroot* directory and runs the app directly from that mounted directory.

You can also run a package from an external URL, such as Azure Blob Storage. You can use the [Azure Storage Explorer](../vs-azure-tools-storage-manage-with-storage-explorer.md) to upload package files to your Blob storage account. You should use a private storage container with a [Shared Access Signature (SAS)](../vs-azure-tools-storage-manage-with-storage-explorer.md#generate-a-sas-in-storage-explorer) or [use a managed identity](#access-a-package-in-azure-blob-storage-using-a-managed-identity) to enable the App Service runtime to access the package securely.
