am trying to create an Azure Logic App in my Azure Free subscription, but deployment fails with the error:

“Subscription not allowed for this resource type”

I have tried the following:

  • Verified subscription is active (Free tier)
  • Tried different regions
  • Checked permissions on the subscription

Still, I am unable to create the Logic App

Hi @Manisekhar Potnuru ,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

The Workflow Service Plan requires dedicated compute resources, which are not supported under the strict spending limits and quotas of the Azure Free Trial. This error occurs because the current subscription does not support  creating logic apps (Workflow Service Plan) resource type.

For resolving this Issue you can use this below steps

Option 1: If your use case strictly requires a Standard Logic App, you will need to upgrade your Free Trial subscription to a Pay-As-You-Go subscription. Then create the Logic App again .

Option 2: If you want to continue using your Free Trial subscription, you should switch your Logic App plan type to Consumption. The Consumption tier is fully supported on free and pay-as-you-go subscriptions for learning and development purposes.

Please accept as Yes if the answer is helpful so that it can help others in the community.

    The error occurs because the current subscription type doesn’t support creating the Logic App (Workflow Service Plan) resource type. Some resource types, including certain Logic Apps SKUs, are restricted on specific subscription offers such as Free or trial subscriptions.

    To proceed, use a subscription type that supports Logic Apps:

    1. Create or switch to a supported paid subscription (for example, Pay-As-You-Go) instead of the Free/trial subscription.
    2. In the Azure portal, start creating the Logic App again and select this supported subscription in the Subscription field.
    3. Ensure the Logic App and any required integration resources (such as an integration account) are created in the same subscription and region so they can be linked correctly.

    Once a supported subscription is used, the “Subscription not allowed for this resource type” error is resolved and the Logic App deployment can complete.
