DESCRIBESQuestion

CAUSED_BYRootCause

Azure WebApp (PaaS) abstracts the underlying networking, so you cannot directly control or disable the availability of port 80 on the platform.

FIXED_BYSolution

Update the frontend to call the API over HTTPS (https://my-api.azurewebsites.net/v1/user/{user_id}). Additionally, configure the Azure Web App to redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS so insecure requests are automatically upgraded.

FIXED_BYSolution

Place the WebApp behind a network layer such as Azure Application Gateway or Front Door, which terminates HTTPS and prevents port 80 exposure to the internet.
