Workspace name XYZ is not available

Question

Hi,

I cannot create an Azure Synapse Analytics Resource because I get the error "Workspace XYZ is not available. If I create first a Workspace Resource, It didn't accept this workspace resource.

What is the issue that I cannot follow the exercise "Explore data analytics in Azure with Azure Synapse Analytics". The is an exercise from the learning path DP-9000.

Answer 1

Hello Jürg S,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A forum.

When you create an Azure Synapse Analytics workspace, you need to provide a unique name for the workspace. If you try to create a workspace with a name that already exists, you will receive an error message indicating that the name is not available. The name must be a unique across the entire Azure cloud

To resolve this issue, you can try creating a new workspace with a different name.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Answer 2

Hi,

I faced the same issue while trying to create an Azure Synapse Analytics Resource. To solve it, I had to check if the workspace name "XYZ" was already in use or if it had been recently deleted. If the name was already taken, I had to choose a different, unique name.

If it had been deleted, I needed to wait for some time for the system to release the name before reusing it. Once I ensured the workspace name was available, I could successfully create the Azure Synapse Analytics Resource and proceed with the exercise "Explore data analytics in Azure with Azure Synapse Analytics" from the learning path DP-9000.
