The anwser might be right, but the question is wrong. Auto-swap needs to be set on the source slot, not the target slot (production in this question)

I think the correct answer really might be A (No). It's not because of the last part about the warm-up being wrong. The incorrect part is before that: "You enable auto swap on the Production deployment slot.". The auto swap is enabled on the source slot, not the destination slot. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/deploy-staging-slots#configure-auto-swap

The target slot (production) is swapped with the source slot (staging). You have to warm up the staging slot with the new code and then switch it with the production slot. This way, the production slot will used the previously warmed staging slot.

In order to ensure the required resources are available, you can prepare one pre-swap script to check if all required resources are available, you can call that pre-swap script in "az webapp config" or in CI/CD .yml file.

You enable auto-swap on source slot not the target slot. The enabling auto-swap on Production simply won't work with deployments to Testing slot.

Copilot AI: The solution you proposed does not meet the goal. Updating the web.config file to include the applicationInitialization configuration element only ensures that the app is warmed up before the swap, but it does not guarantee that the scripts run and the resources are available1. To achieve that, you need to use the slot swap operation API2 and specify a swap operation id3 that can be used to monitor the progress and status of the swap. Alternatively, you can also disable auto swap, update the app with a method named statuscheck to run the scripts, re-enable auto swap and deploy the app to the Production slot4.

If answer B is correct then the question lacks some info about "warm up" part and if that part exists on the actual question on exam go with B otherwise it is correct with A.

You need to ensure that scripts run and resources are available before a swap operation occurs. App Initialization has nothing to do with have sure that resources are available.
