    For student subscriptions, a global policy may be applied that restricts resource creation in certain locations. You can verify this by navigating to:

    Policy -> Authoring ->Assignments -> Allowed resource deployment regions

    here you can see the locations where you can create the resources.

    Hi Anjali,

    The error you’re seeing RequestDisallowedByAzure is expected with an Azure Student subscription. Microsoft applies built-in policy restrictions on these offers:

    • You can only create resources in specific regions (not all Azure regions are available).

    Some services and SKUs are blocked to ensure optimal performance and cost control.

    The error message confirms your subscription is limited by a region policy.

    What you can do:

    1. Try creating the resource in allowed regions (for Student subs, usually East US, West US, West Europe, South Central US).

    If you specifically need another region or service, the only option is to upgrade your Student subscription to a Pay-As-You-Go plan. That removes policy restrictions.

    If you’re unsure which regions are enabled, you can open a support request from the Azure portal – Microsoft can confirm the exact allowed regions for your subscription.

    Always check the available regions dropdown when deploying — if a region is greyed out or errors, it’s blocked by policy.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions or need additional assistance.
