I am not able to create cosmos db account in west us3.
Bicep cosmos template deployment fails with below error message:
"Failover priority value 0 supplied for region West US 3 is invalid
What does it mean and how we can fix this? Can you please help here?

Hi @ Vijay Tiwari
Greetings!!
We reproduced the same from our end and successfully created the azure cosmos DB in West US 3 region.
Are you able to create the Azure Cosmos DB resource in any other region?
If you are able to create in other regions except west US 3, please let us know.

Yes, I am able to create cosmos account in west us2 region in the same subscription.
Hi @ Vijay Tiwari
Could you please try deploying using Azure portal or Azure CLI or Azure powershell?
I am able to create different cosmos account from portal. But I want to update the existing cosmos account region from west us2 to west us3. We moved to west us2 earlier due to quota issue in west us3. Sorry, perhaps I missed to explain my scenario before.
When I try to update (as per below screen shot) the region in bicep template, it throws the above error.
