Answer 1

Hi,

The answer to your question may depend on how your organization uses Azure as a platform. Generically speaking you will need at least Contributor role assigned to a subscription or resourcegroup to deploy resources for your app. Depending on how networking and external access is governed in your org, you may need additional authorizations for setting up external connectivity e.g. with rules in a central firewall.

So aside from Contributor access on the resourcegroup or subscription, its best to consult your admin on connectivity.

Answer 2

Additionally, you can go to the resource that you want to check if you have access, and do the follow:
resource: Example Subscription or Resource Group
on the menu go to Access Control (IAM) -> Check Access (Top List) -> View my access (button)
And you will see what kind of role you have.

In order to have a better overview check this on Subscription level, it is a little mess but if you use of it, you will notice that it is very easy :).
