Bad Gateway error on App Service deployment

Our deployment ran smooth for weeks. But suddenly and without warning and only for one app, the "Bad Gateway" error appeared when deploying Azure DevOps to Azure App Service.

Spent a lot of time with Google on what this error could be. Many wrote to reset the App Service Plan, move the app to another region, but in the end it was very simple:

Just manually select a different app scale size (for example, from S1 to P1V3) and then switch back again. Suddenly everything worked again... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
