Troubleshooting: Create Foundry Resource

Resource Creation Failures

ResourceProviderNotRegistered

Solution:

1. If you have Owner/Contributor role, register the provider:

   az provider register --namespace Microsoft.CognitiveServices

1. If you lack permissions, ask a subscription Owner or Contributor to register it
2. Alternatively, ask them to grant you the /register/action privilege

InsufficientPermissions

Solution:

# Check your role assignments
az role assignment list --assignee <your-user-id> --subscription <subscription-id>

# You need: Contributor, Owner, or custom role with Microsoft.CognitiveServices/accounts/write

Use microsoft-foundry:rbac skill to manage permissions.

LocationNotAvailableForResourceType

Solution:

# List available regions for Cognitive Services
az provider show --namespace Microsoft.CognitiveServices \
  --query "resourceTypes[?resourceType=='accounts'].locations" --out table

# Choose different region from the list

ResourceNameNotAvailable

Resource name must be globally unique. Try adding a unique suffix:

UNIQUE_SUFFIX=$(date +%s)
az cognitiveservices account create \
  --name "foundry-${UNIQUE_SUFFIX}" \
  --resource-group <rg> \
  --kind AIServices \
  --sku S0 \
  --location <location> \
  --yes

Resource Shows as Failed

Check provisioning state:

az cognitiveservices account show \
  --name <resource-name> \
  --resource-group <rg> \
  --query "properties.provisioningState"

If Failed, delete and recreate:

# Delete failed resource
az cognitiveservices account delete \
  --name <resource-name> \
  --resource-group <rg>

# Recreate
az cognitiveservices account create \
  --name <resource-name> \
  --resource-group <rg> \
  --kind AIServices \
  --sku S0 \
  --location <location> \
  --yes

Cannot Access Keys

Error: AuthorizationFailed when listing keys

Solution: You need Cognitive Services User or higher role on the resource.

Use microsoft-foundry:rbac skill to grant appropriate permissions.
