Error: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'method_whitelist'

Pretty much this same question from someone else exists in another forum, but it has no answer. Figured I'd try my luck here. 🙂

I'm working on an Azure function app in Python that just queries a table in ArcGIS Online. It seems to build just fine, but when used it throws the error in the subject line at the point when it attempts to log in to ArcGIS Online.

Curious what might be the cause and solution. Below is the full error:

System.Private.CoreLib: Exception while executing function: Functions.getPercentages. System.Private.CoreLib: Result: Failure

What should be the order in the requirements.txt? First the arcgis 1.9.1 and then the urllib3 1.26.13 or vice versa?

General question to deploying azure functions with arcgis library.  How do you deploy them? I run a zip deployment, but the deployment process sometimes hangs, sometimes times out. In my opinion a pain. And tipps and tricks?

Don't know about Azure, but having a similar issue with google cloud functions. My conclussion is that the env gets too heavy, it seems that arcgis have A LOT of mandatory dependencies, including jupyter (which seems unnecessary for cloud env). Even the docker image provided by esri is heavy (+1gb). Ideally ESRI developers should provide better support for 'barebones' installation, minimun dependencias are not well defined in the documentation.
