I have a multi-tenant application where in each request, the tenant's ID is sent in the HTTP headers.

I would like to implement a simple canary deployment whereby I would pick a subset of the tenant IDs, create a deployment slot for the experimental version and route all HTTP requests for the selected tenants to the new slot.

That is, I need a way to inspect each request and, based on a value of an HTTP header, select the slot which should serve the request.

Is there a way to accomplish that with Azure App Services?

You'll need a reverse proxy which can be achieved using Proxy feature from Azure Functions.

However, the best way to implement it, is using API Management. As it's quite expesive, you can use the consumption plan which will save you a lot of money.
