Description

Describe the feature you'd like

When running a C#/F# notebook from a project folder (ie a folder part of a csproj project), it would be great if the notebook could use the settings stored under Properties/launchSettings.json:

  • launch profiles, e.g. multiple ways to start the project
  • environment variables (e.g. secrets/credentials often stored here)
Alternatives considered

Research direction

Start by tracing how C# and F# notebooks are launched from a project folder associated with a csproj project. Investigate the requested Properties/launchSettings.json inputs, including launch profiles and environment variables; done means the notebook can use those settings. The issue names no source files or tests.
