Which roles do I need for Virtual Machine management (Lighthouse)?

Hello,

I created a Lighthouse offer with Reader, Virtual Machine Contributor as well as other related Contributor roles and Delete Offer roles (see below). After onboarding, when I attempt to create new Virtual Machine via the Provider tennant, I get a permission error like so:

What exactly am I missing? The Service Provider user account is in the group that was associated in the offer, it is also the administrator. So it must be a Role I am missing? My goal is to build an offer that will allow full VM management. Thanks.

These are the roles, I think I might need also to add some Storage and Networking roles:

    Hi @lzap
    Did you register the resource provider for the subscription? like example:

    232877-image.png

    Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/resource-providers-and-types#azure-portal

    You can also create a specific role for all users, to register a resource provider

    Get in touch if you need more help with this issue.
