Hannan Khan Greetings & Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum!

I am not able to create the Resource group on Azure Portal in Azure Open AI. It gives an error that "You do not have permission to create resource groups under subscription specific_subscription_id_Name"

It seems like you do not have the required permissions to create a resource group under the subscription. You need to have the "Owner" or "Contributor" role assigned to your account to create a resource group.

Also, User needs to be a reader at the Subscription level and should have Cognitive Services OpenAI Contributor on the resource level to work.

First check if you have the "Cognitive Services OpenAI Contributor" role is enabled or not. If not, follow the below steps.

To enable "Cognitive Services OpenAI Contributor" role, Goto Azure Open AI resource in Azure Portal -> Access control (IAM) -> Add role assignment --> Select "Cognitive Services OpenAI Contributor" role and assign. Please see below for more clarity. Once you have added the role assignment, you will be able to see this under View My access tab. After adding the Role assignment, you will be able to create/deploy the resources. If you are not an admin to the subscription, please contact your Azure administrator to assign the required role to your account.

Please see Role-based access control for Azure OpenAI Service for more details.

Hope this helps. Do let me know if you have any further queries.

Hi Hannan Khan,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A. I need few clarifications about the same based on my understanding of the question. Can you please check if the below steps are ensured in your process of creation:

1. Ensure Active Azure Subscription: Confirm that the Azure subscription you are working with is currently active. Without an active subscription, resource creation will not be possible.
2. Obtain Azure OpenAI Access: If you haven't obtained access to Azure OpenAI services, you need to submit a request via the provided link. Access is typically granted within 24-48 hours, though it may take up to 10 working days. Use the link below to request access: [OpenAI Access Request]
3. Link OpenAI Resource to Azure Subscription: Ensure that the Azure OpenAI resource is created using the same email ID associated with your Azure Subscription. This connection is essential for proper resource management.

For detailed instructions on creating and configuring Azure OpenAI resources, refer to the documentation provided at the following link: [Azure OpenAI Resource Creation)]. These steps should help you address any potential issues related to the status of your Azure subscription, obtaining OpenAI access, and linking resources to the correct account.

Please try out these steps and check if there any solution to it. Hope this answer helps you with solution! Please comment below if you need any assistance on the same. Happy to help!
