Azure student subscription given no allowed resource deployment regions policy

Russell B 20 Reputation points

Hello,

I recently started my Azure for Students subscription and found that any resource creation was blocked under policy, usually with an error code RequestDisallowedByAzure. Upon further examination to others who have had this problem, it seems that Azure for Student subscriptions have a limited set of allowed regions that are assigned under an "allowed resource deployment regions" policy with the subscription. However, checking under my subscriptions policy assignments, it seems that no assignment was made, effectively blocking me from utilizing any features of Azure under my student subscription:

Using the Azure CLI with the command:

az policy assignment list --query "[?policyDefinitionId.contains(@, 'allowed-locations')]" --output json

returns an empty set of square brackets [], indicating that there are no assigned regions for me to use.

How would I go about getting an allowed resource deployment region policy assigned to my Azure for Students subscription to allow me to use the service?

Hi Russell,

How long since your subscription was created? In the past this has happened to some people and the policy assignment (with the five allowed regions) appeared in their subscription after a delay. I'm unsure how long they had to wait, perhaps a day or so.

    Hello TP,

    I created the subscription yesterday, so a bit under 24 hours ago. I'll probably sit on this until Monday and then send a support request.
