Learn sandbox in Describe the core architectural components of Azure

Question

In Describe the core architectural components of Azure, the exercises in units 4 and 7 are giving error messages stating the sandbox is not available. I have seen a few questions where the answer provided was a link for a different Module and exercise. Doesn't work for the units in core architectural. This has been happening since the first week of this year. Any idea on when the issue will be resolved?

Hi Vincent,

The workaround below does work for "Describe core architectural components". The idea is, you activate sandbox in different module in a new browser tab, and then complete the exercise instructions for units 4 and 7 in this tab (instead of the original tab). I've used this technique multiple times and it has worked successfully each time. See screenshot below from 3 days ago for unit 7:

You can workaround the issue by opening up a new tab and activating sandbox using below link:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/describe-azure-compute-networking-services/3-exercise-create-azure-virtual-machine

Once you have successfully completed the puzzle, accepted permissions, etc., and sandbox is activated, complete the tasks as described in Exercise - Explore the Learn sandbox. Additionally, you may leave the tab open and use the same sandbox for the Exercise - Create an Azure resource later in same module.
