Answer 1

Hello, @David Lenhardt ! Thank you very much for the update! This is a popular question so I'm going to include some additional information for anyone who may run into this. If you get a moment, please consider accepting answer to increase visibility.

Why am I receiving a Required information is missing or not valid error when deploying a VM? When deploying VMs, overlooking a required field or skipping VNET selection/creation in the Networking tab are common causes.

Check tabs with an X to confirm that all required information has been filled out:

There are scenarios, however, where you may be unable to select a required field:

• Make sure that you have the required permissions (RBAC) for deployment of the configuration you are attempting to deploy.
• There have been reports of brief issues on our end which need to be addressed.
• Make sure the VM has a valid VNET.

Additional resources:

• Required information error when attempting to deploy cloud resources to region
• Unable to select subscription
