Stop azure deployed time triggered webjob

I've read that the "proper" (debatable) way to stop a scheduled webjob is to get to scm and delete the settings.job file. However, my project is deployed as a zip through devops so I can't delete files. Trying gives 409.

I also can't delete the job. Portal tells me it's deleted, but it's not.

I've tried stopping the app service but the jobs keep running. What are the other options?

    Adding an Application settings value of WEBJOB_STOPPED with a value of 1 to stop the job. Here is a reference article for webjobs, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/webjobs-create
