# Azure - Invoke
Invokes deployed function. It allows the user to send event data to the function and display the results of the function invocation.
```bash
serverless invoke --function functionName
```
## Options
- `--config` or `-c` Name of your configuration file, if other than `serverless.yml|.yaml|.js|.json`.
- `--function` or `-f` The name of the function in your service that you want to invoke. **Required**.
- `--path` or `-p` The path to a json file with input data to be passed to the invoked function. This path is relative to the root directory of the service.
- `--data` or `-d` Stringified JSON data to be used as input to the function
## Provided lifecycle events
- `invoke:invoke`
## Examples
```bash
serverless invoke --function functionName
```
This example will invoke your deployed function on the configured platform endpoint. This will output the result of the invocation in your terminal.
#### Function invocation with data
```bash
serverless invoke --function functionName --data '{"name": "Bernie"}'
```
#### Function invocation with data passing
```bash
serverless invoke --function functionName --path data.json
```
This example will pass the json data in the `data.json` file (relative to the
root of the service) while invoking the specified/deployed function.
