Hello Davidmiller Miller

Thank you for posting this query on Microsoft Q&A platform.

Could you please share me the below details?

Are you performing the Cross Region Restore through the Azure Portal or using REST API/PowerShell/CLI/Automation? The UserErrorEmptyTargetResourceArmId error indicates that the restore request was submitted without a valid TargetResourceArmId value.

Thanks,

Suchitra.

Hello Davidmiller Miller

The UserErrorEmptyTargetResourceArmId error occurs because the Cross Region Restore request was submitted without a valid TargetResourceArmId. If you are using Azure CLI, please review the restore command and ensure a valid target resource ARM ID is provided. Additionally, verify whether Cross Subscription Restore is disabled on the vault, as the TargetResourceArmId parameter is mandatory in that scenario. After specifying a valid target resource ARM ID, rerun the restore operation.

Thanks,

Suchitra.
