Answer 1

From the Kudu powershell console, if you open a folder in the file browser, you can drag and drop a zip file into it. It's not obvious until you drag the file over top of the file explorer at which time a box opens up over the size column that says "Drag here to upload and unzip".

Answer 2

1. Go to YOURSITE.azurewebsites.net/ZipDeployUI
   
2. Drag and drop

Note: all files and folders in current wwwroot will be removed without warning

Answer 3

I used Visual Studio IDE. Access the Publish interface as shown below.

• Click Manage in Cloud Explorer it will open the specified Azure App web service. Drill down to Files>wwwroot and right click then select Upload File

Hopefully it works for your case.
