appservices apps init
On this page
Initialize an App Services App in your current working directory (alias: initialize)
Initializes a new App Services App by saving your configuration files in your current working directory.
You can specify a "--remote" flag to initialize an App Services App from an existing app; if you do not specify a "--remote" flag, the CLI will initialize a default App Services App.
NOTE: To create a new App Services App and have it deployed, use "app create".
