Thank you for a very helpful article! With your help I've been almost able to make playwright to work on linux consumption plan. The problem that still exists seems to be that the function does not have access to start the browser process:
Error: browserType.launch: Failed to launch: Error: spawn /home/site/wwwroot/node_modules/playwright-chromium/.local-browsers/chromium-907428/chrome-linux/chrome EACCES)
Googling shows that this problem might arise only when deploying through azure devops pipeline, which I'm doing.
Do you or anyone else have any ideas on what could be the solution for this problem?
Unfortunately I couldn't fix the issue. Finally I just gave up using playwright. I'd liked to use Playwright to print html page to pdf, but I refactored my system to use a distinct js-only mechanism to generate PDFs using pdfmake.

Hi @ronkot , Did you get any solution for this? Please help me out. I am also facing this issue. Please have a look on the below error.
