Hello,

I'm doing the AZ900 azure fundamentals course through my organization. There's an exercise in the 2nd module of part 2 of the exercise to create SQL database. But when I do the process in the sandbox just before I create the deployment it's showing me $380 in the charges for the SQL database. Isn't sandbox for learning free? Will I be charged for these exercises through the course?

    Ensure and cross check if you are creating the resource only in Learn sandbox subscription and resource group. If you are doing that, then it's free. It will just show you the price but won't charge you.

    When you perform the exercise, you activate the sandbox and should login to portal using your person @Karima ben or @harsh.com etc. Microsoft Id and not @whatevercompany.com id.

    Looks like, you are trying to use the paid version of your company's Azure subscription. Try to use the Sandbox available in following link
