(ResourceGroupNotFound) Resource group '????' could not be found when creating an azure media services...

I'm trying to create a Service Principal account using the instructions here



https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/latest/stream-files-tutorial-with-api#examine-the-code-that-uploads-encodes-and-streams



However when I run the command



az ams account sp create --account-name media_service_account_name --resource-group resource_group_name



Where media_service_account_name is the name shown for the media service I have created and resource_group_name the name of the resource group shown on the same page.



The problem is I get the message (ResourceGroupNotFound) Resource group 'resource_group_name' could not be found.



I just can't see what I am doing wrong. Any help appreciated.

  • My problem was that I had multiple subscriptions for the account and I needed to set the subscription related to the resource group first

Keep in mind that Resource Groups in Azure are things that you create, so the article was only providing an example of a Resource Group name.



The command to create the service principal expects you to use the resource group that you used to create your media service account.



az ams account sp create --account-name amsaccount --resource-group **amsResourceGroup**


Make sure that you are using the right resource group name that you used when you created your Media Services account first, and use a unique named one in the same region as your account. I usually call az group create before creating a new account to put it into it's own Resource Group along with the storage account I create for it.



Example
Create a new resource group named "MyResourceGroup" in the West US region.



az group create -l westus -n 


Hope that helps!

  • I think I may be confused as to what resource group is being talked about. If I run az group list I only see one resource group but if I login into the Azure dashboard with the same account there are 36 resource groups but not the one listed by the Azure CLI

  • Either way whichever resource group name I use I always get the same message

  • Did you check to make sure you were logged into the right subscription via both the portal and the CLI? Otherwise, it may be a permission issue on your subscription.

  • Try "az account show" and make sure the account you are logged into in the CLI is the right one.

  • I just re-checked, and was able to run this successfully in my own MSDN account. So if you are hitting an error, you may want to pen a support ticket on your subscription. az ams account sp create -a build18 --resource-group build2018 --role Owner --years 2
