How do I get my iCloud photos back?

I signed out of my Apple ID then I signed back in but when I did that, a big portion of my photos disappeared from my camera roll. Also some stuff that I added to favourites on Safari disappeared as well.

iPad, iOS 13

Update: I figured it out. I just had to click “use my iPad as this location” and then I got the photos back.
