By me
Am I missing something? When I try to deploy a function inside my app, I get to the resources section and it says it’s a web service. Documentation shows it saying as a function but everytime I try to load in my github repo, it comes up as a web service.
Am I doing something wrong or should it be like that? It’s a php function.

Hello,
I’ve just tested this with this sample function here:
https://github.com/digitalocean/sample-functions-php-numberstowords
It all seems to be working as expected and the App Platform auto-detects that the project is a function rather than a web service.
Does your function follow the conversion as described in the docs:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/functions/how-to/create-functions/
Example:
example-project/
├── packages
│ └── sample
│ └── hello
│ └── hello.php
└── project.yml
Best,
Bobby
Perhaps you had a composer.json at the root directory, or something similar depending on your project. I was working on a node.js function and had a package.json and package-lock.json at root and it tried to deploy a web service and function when deploying it as an app.
