Deployment Slot for Azure Scheduler and Azure logic Apps

Question

I am trying to build a logic flow which will be triggered by the scheduler . The scheduler will send a message to the service queue. And the Service queue will be by trigger point for the logic app.

Now the issue is that , I want to have a version running on different slots (deployment slots) or (Staging/Production) . I tried hard to find it on AZURE PORTAL ,but was not able to locate the deployment slots for AZURE SCHEDULER / AZURE LOGIC APP.

Can someone guide me how can i create the Slots/Staging for SCHEDULER / LOGIC APPS.

I was able to create the slots for Azure functions as the settings in the Azure functions have the option to create the slots.

Currently, there is no Deployment slots option for Azure logic app. Here is a feature request, you can vote for it and track status.

If the Azure Scheduler is just for dropping a message into a Service Bus Queue, you could use an Azure Function with a Timer Trigger that does this. With Functions you have deployment slots.

Logic Apps have version history, and you can promote an old version. If you want both versions running side-by-side, you might need two different logic apps. Each of them listening to a different service bus queue, or same topic with different subscriptions.

You can use the Recurrence trigger to execute Logic App on a schedule, there's no need to use Scheduler to trigger a Logic App.
