Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with build 31269165475 and the Tests / Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus / Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus job, then compare the other listed failing builds. Trace the Azure Functions Core Tools installation request to cdn.functions.azure.com and determine why the referenced zip returns 404; done means the affected Ubuntu jobs install the tool successfully.
