I want to show an .mp4 as a background video on a website I created and deployed to Azure via FTP. Unfortunately, accessing the background video always gives me a 404. The pages are all .html files using AngularJS.
I figure that I need to add a custom mime type for .mp4s. Normally this would be done in the Web.Config, but since it was just something I whipped up in Notepad++ I don't have (and besides this issue, haven't really had need for) a Web.Config.
I was looking at the Configuration section in the Azure Portal for the site and can see where I can add connection strings and appSettings, but I don't see anything where I can do MIME types.
Is allowing .mp4s on Azure possible through the portal, or is my only option to make a Web.Config and FTP that up too?

Click Content Settings. Click the MIME tab in the form. Edit the default content-type, content-language, and character set values as necessary. Optional: If necessary, select File extensions are case sensitive to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters when comparing file extensions.
Configure connection strings. In the Azure portal, search for and select App Services, and then select your app. In the app's left menu, select Configuration > Application settings. For ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core developers, setting connection strings in App Service are like setting them in <connectionStrings> in Web.
The only way to do this is via the Web.config file. This link below will help you configure the settings in web.config:
