Hi,

I am practicing the following Learning Path exercise:

  • Topic: AZ-900
  • Learning Path: Azure Fundamentals: Describe Azure architecture and services.
  • Module: Describe Azure compute and networking services
  • Unit: 3 of 14 Exercise - Create an Azure Virtual Machine

The instructions I am seeing are these: Screenshot 2024-01-11 at 11.41.57

I am failing on that first steps, as I get an AuthorizationFailed Error. I am signed in and I have restarted the sandbox. Clearly there is either a specific value or some convention that I should enter, but I have no clue what it is or where to look it up.

    Hi,

    There is a bug in the exercise that appeared recently. Please use instructions below.

    Please navigate to the Create an Azure virtual machine exercise, Activate a new sandbox, sign in, etc. Once sandbox is activated and black cloud shell window with "Welcome to Azure Cloud Shell" displayed, navigate to Exercise - Configure network access using the "Unit x of 14" dropdown above the exercise.

    After page loads and resource group name is updated to learn-, immediately navigate back to Create an Azure virtual machine exercise and complete it.

    Inspiration for above workaround came from @pnaroju's #2 suggestion in this post.

    Thanks.
