Getting started with azure function app and the deployment can be somewhat challenging. I really struggled with the module not found error.
Error itself
Result: Failure Exception: ImportError: cannot import name 'refresh workspace' from 'refresh.refresh workspace'

§ in <modules from module.module_script import module_script
Overview
The triggering folder itself is straight forward and comes from the template. When I wanted to use another file, the structure and the right path was a problem. For running the file that is in the /module folder, you need to import the module like a regular package.
from module.module_script import module_script
To run the code inside the module folder you need to call the module script in your code
module_script()
Implementation
The module folder needs to have a empty file __init__.py.
Conclusion
Make sure that the structure is right, there is a empty init file in the module folder and the import is written in a right form. This should get you started with Azure function app with Python
