I am unable to create Azure App Service, or Azure Function resources due to cited quota issues.

Whenever I try to create an Azure Function app or Azure App Service.

The error is as follows:

`his region has quota of 0 instances for your subscription. Try selecting different region or SKU.

`

Even though I have 0 Function apps or App Services and I am using PAYG subscription, I keep getting this error.

Your help is appreciated, thank you!

    Hello Dalean Barnett,

    I see you were unable to request quota increase.

    So to add:

    Not all SKUs are available in every Azure region. Some regions may have limited availability for specific SKUs, leading to a quota of zero for those SKUs in that region.

    To see if the desired SKU is available in the East US region currently, you can use the Azure CLI:

    az appservice list-locations --sku <SKU_Name>

    Also check existing quota:

    In the Azure portal, navigate to your subscription’s Usage + quotas section to check current quotas and utilization. This will help you identify any limitations specific to your subscription.

    If you want to raise the limit or quota above the default limit, open an online customer support request at no charge.

    See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/troubleshooting/error-resource-quota?tabs=azure-cli#solution
