 + By default, authorization isn't enforced locally for HTTP endpoints. This means that all local HTTP requests are handled as `authLevel = "anonymous"`. For more information, see [Authorization level](functions-bindings-http-webhook-trigger.md#http-auth). You can use the `--enableAuth` option to require authorization when running locally.
