When developing Azure Function thru Class Library approach (local development) I came across issue when using Even Hub compatible endpoint of IoTHub for triggering my function. This is set thru IoTHubTrigger attribute:

 [FunctionName("IoTHubMessageProcessor")]
 public static void Run([IoTHubTrigger("messages/events",  Connection= "IoTHubReceiveEventsConnectionEndpoint")]EventData message, ILogger log)

When using provided connection string and messages/events endpoint I received error stating that "messaging entity could not be found".

enter image description here

Solution was to alter the connection string and include also Event Hub compatible name in connection string as an entity path so it looks like this:

Endpoint=sb://<Event hub-compatible endpoint>.servicebus.windows.net/;EntityPath=<Event Hub compatible name>;SharedAccessKeyName=<keyName>;SharedAccessKey=<key>"
