Answer 1

As I understood from the last screenshot you shared, you are using a Free Trial account and that's the reason why you are not able to see all the functionalities as expected.
In this situation, you need to go for a different approach like Create functions using Visual Studio Code and connect to Azure Storage. Following articles might help on this approach

Here is another article that guides, how to connect Azure Functions to storage using command line tools

Make sure the following points are followed well while selecting storage account for function app

• Use, general-purpose Azure Storage account in same region only. While you can use an existing storage account with your function app, you must make sure that the same condition is met. If there are no storage account found with the matching conditions, you won't be able to attach it during the function app creation flow

Attached is the error

Answer 4

While creating the Function App, you should be able to see the option to create a new storage account or the existing one. If this is not the case for you, check the same steps with a different browser, login with your account and try creating a function app from the scratch.

See, how I see in my Azure portal. On the Hosting tab, I can see the option to create/select storage account
