Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Azure Container Apps REST API supports stopping and starting container apps. This same capability should be supported through Azure CLI.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add support for az containerapp stop and az containerapp start mapping to the REST API.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Use the REST API directly az rest -m post -u "/subscriptions/.../resourceGroups/.../providers/Microsoft.App/containerapps/.../stop?api-version=2023-05-01".

Any update on this, we have used azure cli for all other container app operations, and adding Az powershell to start/stop complicates the toolchain.
Is the ambition that the two tools should match functionality?

Any update on this? It's been open for 2 years now.

If you only want a restart (i.e. not a stop and then a start), I've managed to achieve this via a restart of the current revision of an Azure Container app via the CLI with az containerapp revision restart.
Note that this does not create a new revision, just does a restart (I'm not sure whether this is a rolling restart, only tested this with a single replica app) on the replica set.
