I can't create an azure function app

Question

When I try to create an azure function app it keeps loading the resource, I can't see anything about hosting either

I am trying to create an azure function app to execute a script for emails, but when I want to create it, the hosting tab does not appear, only networks, etc., when I click on review and create it stays loading, it lasts like this without a response, the console The browser throws this error, I don't know if it is because it is a free 200usd account, if so I should try another service other than Azure

I was having the same error. When submitting to Review+Create a new function app (consumption on free instance) the website would hang. Same would happen if I navigated directly to the Network tab.

The resolution, for me at least, was to add a Log Analytics Workspace to my Resource Group. After doing so the Review+Create tab for the function app loaded successfully.

I found the error by using Dev Tools (F12) and inspecting the JS error that was being thrown. I have seen at least one other forum post where the developer had a similar issue with either Storage and/org App Insights not available so check those too.

Hello!

It seems like you are having trouble creating an Azure Function app.

Let's see if we can figure out what's going on.

First, it's important to note that the hosting tab should appear when you create a new function app. If it's not appearing, there may be an issue with the Azure portal. Have you tried refreshing the page or clearing your browser cache?

You mentioned that you have a free $200 USD account. While this should be enough to create a function app, there may be some limitations or restrictions that are causing the issue.

To troubleshoot this issue, I recommend checking the Azure status page to see if there are any known issues with the Azure portal or function apps. You can also try creating a new function app in a different region or using a different subscription to see if that resolves the issue.

If none of these solutions work, I recommend reaching out to Azure support for further assistance. They should be able to help you troubleshoot the issue and get your function app up and running. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

It doesn't make sense to me. I've been trying to create a function app on the Azure portal, but every time I attempt it, I'm not allowed to proceed, and I receive an error message: 'The subscription <id> is not allowed to create or update the serverfarm.'

Additionally, I've tried several workarounds described in posts, but none have worked as expected. I'm starting to believe that maybe our free account isn't allowed to create function apps. Is that possible?

Another thing I've noticed is that when I select a consumption plan, there’s no tab for storage. Why is this happening? Is it due to a new update to the Azure portal, or is it simply not configurable for consumption plans?
