A catalog of AI models in Microsoft Foundry that you can discover, compare, and deploy using Azure’s built‑in tools for evaluation, fine‑tuning, and inference
Hello @Josh H,
Thank you for reaching out. I understand how frustrating it can be when the deployment reserves quota successfully, only to fail during provisioning with a generic error.
Based on the details you provided, your Azure AI Foundry configuration appears to be largely correct. Since quota is successfully reserved and the deployment process starts, this confirms that:
- Your subscription has been granted access to Claude Opus 4.7
- Quota is correctly allocated
- Required resource providers (
Microsoft.SaaSandMicrosoft.Marketplace) are registered - Your permissions are sufficient to initiate deployment
However, the fact that provisioning fails after several minutes and no Microsoft.SaaS resource is created strongly suggests the issue is occurring during the Azure Marketplace SaaS fulfillment process.
Root Cause
Anthropic MaaS models, including Claude Opus 4.7, require a successful Azure Marketplace subscription handshake before the deployment can complete.
In some cases:
- Quota is visible and can be reserved
- Deployment creation is allowed
- Provisioning begins
but the deployment ultimately fails if the Marketplace offer has not been fully subscribed to, accepted, or fulfilled for your subscription.
This is why you may see quota reserved, yet no underlying SaaS resource gets created.
Recommended Steps
1. Confirm Marketplace Subscription to the Anthropic Offer
Please verify that you have explicitly subscribed to the Anthropic Marketplace offer.
In the Azure portal:
- Go to Azure Marketplace
- Search for Anthropic Claude Opus 4.7
- Select the offer
- Click Subscribe
- Review and accept the legal terms
This step is required before Azure AI Foundry can provision the underlying Microsoft.SaaS resource.
2. Verify Subscription Eligibility
Anthropic MaaS models are supported only on eligible subscription types, including:
- Pay-As-You-Go
- Enterprise Agreement (EA)
- Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA-E)
They are generally not supported on:
- Free Trial subscriptions
- Azure for Students
- Credit-only subscriptions
- Some CSP-managed subscriptions
Please also ensure that:
- A valid payment method is associated with the subscription
- Your billing profile is active
- Marketplace purchases are enabled
You can verify Marketplace purchase settings under:
Subscriptions → Your Subscription → Policies
3. Re-register Required Resource Providers
Although both providers are already registered, refreshing the registrations can sometimes resolve Marketplace fulfillment issues.
Using Azure CLI:
az provider unregister --namespace Microsoft.SaaS
After re-registering, allow approximately 5–10 minutes for the changes to propagate.
4. Review Activity Logs for Detailed Errors
In the Azure portal:
- Navigate to the resource group used for the deployment
- Open Activity Log
- Filter by Status = Failed
Look specifically for failed operations related to:
-
Microsoft.SaaS - Marketplace fulfillment
- Purchase authorization
- Billing validation
These logs often contain more detailed error codes than the deployment blade.
5. Verify Deployment Configuration
Please confirm:
- The deployment region is East US 2
- Your Azure AI Foundry project is associated with the same subscription and resource group
- Your account has Owner or Contributor access at both:
- Subscription/resource group scope
- Azure AI Foundry project scope
- Subscription/resource group scope
A Microsoft.SaaS resource is created automatically during successful provisioning.
No manual creation of this resource is required.
Since no SaaS resource appears, the failure is almost certainly occurring before Marketplace fulfillment completes.
