I am unable to create CosmoDB in US East region (or any US region where my app services resource is)

I am unable to create CosmoDB in US East region or create an App Services App in Central US. The error given for both of these cases is "This region has a quota of 0 instances for your subscription. Try selecting a different region or SKU."

I spend hours trying to find a region in the US where I could deploy both resources to without success. I need to keep the resources in the US because of data residency reqs. I think it's ridiculous that I can only create the resource in different regions and will be forced to pay data transfer fees.

The failure for resource quota is only shown AFTER trying to create the resource. This is incredibly bad UX and frustrating and I have to go through all of the configuration steps before getting the error.

  • I can create a CosmoDB in Central US
  • I can create an App Services App in East US.

I either need to be able to create an App Service App in Central US or create a CosmoDB in East US. Right now both of these give me errors.

Can someone remove the service limit on my account and allow me to to do either of these?

    Hello Ernie Guaimano

    Here are a few steps you can do to resolve your issues:

    1. Check Quota Limits: Go to the “Usage + quotas” section under your subscription.
    2. Request a Quota Increase: Try to request a quota increase by yourself in Azure portal by creating a support request.

    3. Contact Azure Support: If the above steps won't help contact Azure support directly. Open a support ticket through the Azure portal.
