Hi @One Aieda ,

You don't need the end quotes for CLI commands but you do for powershell. Here's the Azure CLI commands for starting and stopping a web app:

Start a web app:

az webapp start --name MyWebapp --resource-group MyResourceGroup  

Stop a web app:

    az webapp stop --name MyWebapp --resource-group MyResourceGroup  

For Powershell:

The Start-AzureRmWebApp cmdlet starts an Azure Web App.

The Stop-AzureRmWebApp cmdlet stops an Azure Web App.

Ex: Stop-AzureRmWebApp -ResourceGroupName "Default-Web-WestUS" -Name "ContosoWebApp"

This command stops the Web App named ContosoWebApp that belongs to the resource group named Default-Web-WestUS.

Hope that helps.
