New deployed Azure web app is returning 404 Error code [closed]

Question

I have deployed an ASP.NET Core Web API project using terraform. I can see it has been deployed successfully and the web app service is running. When I browse to the link it returns 404. I was wondering if i can get help on identifying why I am getting 404 error code when it has deployed successfully. I am using the FREE Azure subscription in case it makes difference.

404 Error

Now, if I just append the weatherforecast at the end of the URL, it will start working as shown below:-

Above is true for the Azure Deployment as well. I have deployed the same web api on azure, as azure app service and it is showing 404 as shown below:-

Again 404

Now add weatherforecast at end and it will start working and 404 will gone as shown below:-
