Formerly known as Azure AI Services or Azure Cognitive Services is a unified collection of prebuilt AI capabilities within the Microsoft Foundry platform
"No available regions" in the deployment dialog means that, for the selected model, there is currently no supported combination of:
- Model availability for the subscription’s billing country/region, and
- A Foundry project (hub) region that is allowed for that model.
For GPT and other Foundry Models, deployment is only possible when all of the following are true:
- The model is offered in at least one region for the subscription’s billing country/region.
- There is a Foundry project in one of the model’s supported regions.
- The model is enabled for the subscription (for gated models) and there is sufficient quota.
If any of these conditions fail, the portal shows No available regions and lists all other regions as Region not supported.
To move forward, use these checks and actions:
- Verify model regional availability
- Check the model’s supported regions in the documentation for Region availability for models in standard deployments and the specific model tables. If the subscription’s billing country/region is not in the model’s offer availability, the model cannot be deployed from that subscription.
- For partner/community models, also check the provider’s availability and Marketplace offer rules. Errors like Offer not available in your country/region or Marketplace purchase eligibility check failed indicate that the subscription’s billing region is not eligible.
- Ensure the Foundry project is in a supported region
- Each model lists the allowed Hub/Project Region for Deployment. Only projects in those regions can be used. If all existing projects are in unsupported regions, the deployment dialog will show No available regions.
- Create a new Foundry project in one of the supported regions for that model, then retry the deployment.
- Distinguish deployment types
- Some models are only available as Global Standard or other serverless deployment types. The Foundry project must be in a region allowed for that deployment type (for example, certain Anthropic Claude models require the project to be in East US 2 or Sweden Central).
- Check quota and access (after regions are available)
- Once a supported region appears and can be selected, deployment may still fail if quota is exhausted. In that case, request more quota or reallocate TPM from existing deployments.
If, after creating a project in a listed supported region, the dialog still shows No available regions for all models (including non‑GPT models), this typically indicates that none of the models in the catalog are currently offered to the subscription’s billing country/region or that Marketplace eligibility is blocking third‑party offers. In that situation, open an Azure support request so the support team can review subscription‑level availability and Marketplace eligibility for Foundry Models.
