Hi,

Azure for Students restricts which regions you can deploy resources to. Typically you are restricted to five different regions, and these vary for each person.

Please navigate to Azure Policy -- Authoring -- Assignments using link below:

https://portal.azure.com/#view/Microsoft_Azure_Policy/PolicyMenuBlade/~/Assignments

Look for an assignment similar to "Allowed locations", or something with location as part of the name. Click on this assignment, and then examine the Parameter value for list of regions.

These are the regions you are allowed to deploy resources to. Please try to create the storage account in one of these regions and let me know the results.

Thanks for the screenshot. When you get the error, if you click on the details and the Raw error tab, does the JSON error contain list of allowed regions?

If needed I was thinking we could write script that would loop through all the regions and try to create storage account in each. The regions where it succeeds would be your list of allowed regions.

Other people that got same error as you had list of allowed regions in their policy assignments. Unsure why it isn't showing for you, but will get it figured out.

@Mohammed Kaif Any update? If you still can't see a list of allowed regions I can help write script I mentioned above so you can determine which ones are permitted for your subscription.
