Our guidance is to configure filtering on the host, is able to filter logs from the app, the Python language worker, as well as the host itself.

It is a bit difficult to figure out the log categories without going to App Insights. I have some samples here: https://github.com/anthonychu/functions-log-suppression

As Anthony already mentioned, you could use host.json config to specify your log level. For Python specifically, we have a change that is pending deployment to fix DEBUG log level bug: #735

Many python libraries set their level to 'info' and include debug information at that level, including Azure SDK libraries. I want to set the info level for my app's logs, but not all of the logging from all of the libraries that I use.

If this was a standard python app, I would setup a logging.basicConfig with the default level to warning, then set my app specific logger to INFO. However, I don't have a direct handle to the azure functions worker's logging handle.

I could update the context of the azure_functions_worker.logger.handler on every execution to add this filtering, that seems fragile.

Is there way to handle this use case?
