I am trying to perform content search using Azure search. I could create a data source and an index. When I try to created an indexer from the portal I get the following message

I have not created a skillset, but it should be optional and should not affect the creation of the indexer. Also, I was able to create an indexer using POST request from Postman. What might be causing this problem in the portal? Thank you in advance!

    Hi @Reim Mahmoud ,

    You’re correct that skillsets are optional. This issue maybe occurring because an indexer cache was accidentally added to your indexer’s definition. Indexer caches are a part of the indexer that can only be used with skillsets. Is there a way to remove the indexer cache from your indexer?

    Also, can you let us know if you're indeed using 'import data', and what options you chose, so we can try to repro this issue on our end?

    Thanks,
    Grace
