Azure ML studio's Notebook file's folder/section not visible

Question

Hi,

I am trying to create a machine learning workspace with private endpoint and storage account also with private endpoint in the same subnet of a VNET. However, when I try to create a notebook on Azure Machine Learning Studio, I can only see the “Samples” section and not the “Files” section. I get the error message that “You do not have access to the workspace storage account. The storage account may be behind a VNET. Contact your administrator if this error persists”.

How can ML Studio connect to the storage account via a private endpoint in the same Subnet?

Do I need to configure any "Workspace managed outbound access rules"

Thanks for your feedback.

Best regards,

Nhan

Based on this old thread :

The error message is related to storage account which indicates that you do not have access to the storage account that is associated with your Azure Machine Learning workspace. The storage account may be behind a virtual network (VNet) that restricts access to only certain IP addresses or subnets. To resolve this error, you can try these options:

• Contact your administrator and ask them to grant you access to the storage account by adding your IP address or subnet to the firewall rules of the storage account. You can find your IP address by visiting this website. Won't be applicable if its student account, just check if there are any firewall rules in place.
• Connect to a virtual machine host that is located on the same VNet as the storage account and access Azure Machine Learning from there. This way, you can bypass the firewall rules and access the storage account directly.
• Create a new ML workspace and storage account that are not behind a VNet and check if they are also throwing the same error.
