Hello community,

I was trying to automate the Start/Stop of the VMs during off time, but I have an Azure permission problem, even if the user that i'm using is the creator and the owner of the account/subscription, but when i have tried to create some sources (like "run as account") , the permission error appears :

Any ideas ?

    This process needs to create a service principal on your tenant so your user account would have to be at least an "application administrator" on your tenant or a "global administrator" role would be able do this also.
