We have now come to the point in our Service Fabric application development where we need to add a custom parameter that can be overridden at run time (as described in https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/service-fabric-manage-multiple-environment-app-configuration/). We're still in the development stage...no azure production environment, yet, so this question mainly concerns running the service fabric cluster from visual studio or thru a powershell script in a VM. I know that Deploy-FabricApplication.ps1 is ran during debug and per its usage instructions in that file I can override custom parameters. However, I can't seem to figure out where I do that in Visual Studio so that when different developers start a debug session they can set the custom parameter value to whatever makes sense in their dev environment. Any ideas? We have a task to research how to better handle secrets storage but we're not quite there, yet.

You can add multiple publish profiles (optionally without checking them in). One for every developer if needed. For secrets: you can encrypt settings and/or use Azure Key Vault combined with a Service Principal, similar to what is shown here.
