Unable to reused linux app service name after delete resource in the same subscription

Question

Currently my issue is I'm unable to create app service with same name and got "the app name xxx isn't available" after perform resource deletion.

I know about name reservation and in the same tenant we should be able to re-used it immediately.

I've can see the deleted resource when run command check for deleted web app and try to restore it but also failed the naming check.

I ask teamlead who perform move resource to another subscription on Nov. he's confirm it the same tenant and not change

Hello @Kanapol Terdvikra

You are correct if you already removed the App there may be a small time to wait until DNS name becomes available again.

You can remove webapp from deleted items, which seen after Get-AzDeletedWebApp pwsh command

$deletedWebApp = Get-AzDeletedWebApp -ResourceGroupName <ResourceGroupName> -Name WebApp1

Remove-AzResource -ResourceId $deletedWebApp.ResourceId -Force

After above steps try to create WebApp again

If you still have the issue after deleting WebApp, open Azure Support ticket.
