Disabled Azure Function Still Pulls Messages off of Azure Storage Queue

Question

I have a basic QueueTrigger Azure function. When I disable the function in the azure portal it's still pulling messages off the storage queue (because when I look at the queue in the Azure Queue Storage Explorer the queue is empty and if i add a message it is immediately pulled off).

Here is the code:

[FunctionName("ProcessMessage")]
public static void Run([QueueTrigger("queue-name", Connection = "queue-connection")] Models.Message message, TraceWriter log)
{
    log.Info($"C# Queue trigger function processed: {message}");
}

I noticed that when I stop the whole functions app it stops processing messages off the queue, but I was hoping that I could disable queue processing temporarily without stopping the whole function app. How does one do that?

Thanks!

Disabling the V1 function created in Visual Studio does not work in the azure portal. You should use the attribute:
