Stepping through "Exercise: Create a static HTML web app by using Azure Cloud Shell". When I get to creating the web app with "az webapp up" command, I get the following error message: "This region has quota of 1 instances for your subscription. Try selecting different region or SKU."
This question is related to the following Learning Module
Found a similar issue that suggested specifying a different location. Found the command and list for locations. Ran down the list until I found a location that allowed me to provision webapp.
Found a similar issue that suggested trying a different location. Found a gist with location command and list. Stepped through the locations on the list until I found a location that would work.

Hi Kim Bradshaw,
We're thankful for your engagement with the Microsoft Q&A forum.
Based on your query, it appears that there are no Azure subscriptions in the Microsoft Learn Sandbox directory associated with your account.
Upon activating a sandbox by clicking the "Activate sandbox" button for an exercise, a default subscription named "Concierge subscription" is generated for the Microsoft Learn Sandbox directory.
Please refer to the attached screenshots for visual reference. These depict the presence of the Concierge subscription both upon logging into the Azure portal and after activating a sandbox from an exercise within a module.
In cases where multiple subscriptions are linked to a single email address, various directories may be visible under the directory name. To access the desired directory, you may utilize the "Switch" button to navigate to the Microsoft Learn Sandbox directory and proceed with creating resources as required for your learning path modules.
To view the subscription within the Microsoft Learn Sandbox directory, please follow these steps:
It's important to note that sandboxes are active for a predetermined duration, typically ranging from 1 to 4 hours as indicated in the exercise. You must complete your exercises within this allocated timeframe.
The default Azure subscription named "Concierge subscription" will remain visible in the Azure portal as long as your sandbox is active. Once the sandbox expires, the Concierge subscription will no longer be visible. To continue, you'll need to activate a new sandbox.
Please be aware that there is a limit of 10 or 20 sandboxes per day, as specified in the exercise instructions.

Hi Kim Bradshaw,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A platform.
You will receive this error when you exceed the limit of cores for a region. You need to raise a support ticket to increase the limit of the number of cores for a West Europe region.
Cause: Quotas are applied per resource group, subscriptions, accounts, and other scopes. For example, your subscription may be configured to limit the number of cores for a region. If you attempt to deploy a virtual machine with more cores than the permitted amount, you receive an error stating the quota has been exceeded.
Solution: To request a quota increase, go to the portal and file a support issue. In the support issue, request an increase in your quota for the region into which you want to create the VMs.
How to check Usage + Quotas for your subscription?
Select your subscription => Under Settings => Usage + quotas => Use filter to select "Standard F" & "West Europe" => Check usage of Total Regional vCPUs => If the usage is full, you need to click on Request Increase to increase the limit of cores in the region.
To request a quota increase, go to the portal and file a support issue. In the support issue, request an increase in your quota for the region into which you want to deploy.
