We use Azure Web Apps with Azure SQL and would like to make this setup more secure by configuring the database firewall to only allow connection from the specific web apps rather than any service in Azure. How can I limit connections to just my Azure services?

Assuming that you have an ip address (hosting plan needs to be shared, basic or standard)**:
a) Navigate to SQL Databases >> Servers Tab >> Select the server hosting your database >> Configure Tab
b) Alternatively select your database >> Manage Allowed Ip Address (Right side Quick Glance bar)
- Add your website ip to the list of allowed ip addresses
- Change Windows Azure Services to "No" on "Allowed Services"
**You can view your ip address clicking Manage Domains on the Website Dashboard bottom bar.

To get all possible outbound IP-addresses for your web app you can get them also via Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell, as described in this article.
Azure CLI:
az webapp show --resource-group <group_name> --name <app_name> --query possibleOutboundIpAddresses --output tsv
Azure PowerShell:
(Get-AzWebApp -ResourceGroup <group_name> -name <app_name>).PossibleOutboundIpAddresses
