Cannot access to Microsoft Learn sandbox

I've been trying to activate the sandbox in "Create an Azure virtual machine" exercise in Describe Azure compute and networking services module in Microsoft Learn but I never have success. When I click in the "Sign in" button (I'm already logged in, but the sandbox ask me to do it again) and select my account a message pops up:

"The selected user account does not exist in the tenant "Microsoft Services", so that the "18FBCA16-2224-45F6-85B0-F7BF2B39B3F3" application cannot be accessed. To do this, it is first necessary to add the account as an external user in the tenant. Use another account."

What do I have to do?

This question is related to the following Learning Module

    Hi Jendrito,

    You should be able to work around the issue by first Activating the sandbox (solving puzzles, reviewing permissions, etc.) and then once you see the sign-in box appear on the right open a new browser tab. In this new tab, browse to https://shell.azure.com. If your existing sandbox hasn't expired you can use that instead of activating a new one.

    When prompted, click Bash

    Next choose No storage account required, for Subscription select Concierge Subscription, and click Apply.

    After several seconds delay while a cloud shell is requested and connected to, you should see $ prompt. At this point you can complete the exercises instructions, copy/paste code from exercise tab to cloud shell tab as needed, etc.

    Please click Accept Answer and upvote if the above was helpful.

    Thanks.
