Azure Form Recognizer: Cannot import existing project

Question

Azure Form Recognizer: Cannot import existing project

Sandra Stocker 15

Hello,

Today a Form Recognizer Project was created by another member of my team. As we would like to work together on training the model. He then shared the project with the provided share option within the Form Recognizer Studio.

When I try to import the project I get following error message:

Cannot import project. Please make sure you have the permission to access Storage Account.

First I didn't have the correct permissions, but now I can successfully access the Storage Account within the Azure Portal as well as Azure Storage Explorer.

Any ideas why the import of the project still does not work for me?

Hope someone can help me with this issue.

Hi @Sandra Sudi

If you're encountering the error "Cannot import project. Please make sure you have the permission to access Storage Account" when trying to import a shared Form Recognizer project, consider these steps:

Ensure you have the necessary permissions to access the associated storage account.

Confirm that the project has been shared correctly and you have the appropriate access rights.

Check the storage account configuration for any restrictions on project imports.

Review Form Recognizer limitations and ensure you meet the requirements for importing shared projects.

If the issue persists, contact Azure Support for further assistance.

I was able to resolve the problem. I was missing the read permission on the resource group of the storage account.

Hello,

I have Contributor Rights to the Storage Account and the project's "Service" setting is set to "Resource".
