->- The Restore-AzDeletedWebApp cmdlet restores a deleted web app. The web app specified by TargetResourceGroupName, TargetName, and TargetSlot will be overwritten with the contents and settings of the deleted web app. If the target parameters are not specified, they will automatically be filled with the deleted web app's resource group, name, and slot. If the target web app does not exist, it will automatically be created in the app service plan specified by TargetAppServicePlanName.
