Problem description

I am seeking assistance to lift the suspension on my Azure OpenAI resource after updating and regenerating my API keys. The resource was suspended due to exposure of API keys in publicly accessible code, and I have taken steps to remediate the issue.

Environment

Azure OpenAI resource using API keys, located in East US region.

What I've already tried

On November 5, 2026, I received a notice about the exposure of my API keys in a public GitHub repository. I regenerated the keys and updated all applications, scripts, and automations to use the new keys. I also removed the exposed keys from public content and verified logs, images, packages, and documents for additional copies. Additionally, I implemented pre-commit checks to prevent future exposures.

Current status

I am requesting guidance on how to confirm the suspension has been lifted and the resource restored, and whether further validation or steps are required from my side.
