Azure services not listing anything - azure

I am new to Azure. I know this is weird question.
But, when I am creating any Storage Account or a VM or say any service instance, I am not able to list it in the service listing after creating. Looks like its created but disappeared.
Due to it, Azure is charging me as I cannot delete the service(e.g a VM) that I created.
Anyone has any insight into this.

You can list/delete it with by using Azure CLI or Azure Powershell Az module.

Did you try checking the notification panel on the top right. Whatever resources are created, it will appear in notification saving "deployed/in progress/etc". Click on go to resource if notification shows it. Also check the dashboard page, if any recent resources are available.
Image shows the home page with recent resources and showing the notification panel.
You can also check your cost analysis. Go to your subscription -> Click on Pay-as-you-go -> Under cost management -> Cost Analysis.
Cost Analysis will tell you, for what services and resources you are getting charged. You can filter the result and view it by resource.
Hope this helps.

Azure custom vision | Fails to display projects from any browsers | Chrome, IE, Edge, Firefox

I am trying to load the page 'https://www.customvision.ai' for training Vision Api for improving the object detection ability of Azure Cognitive Service Instance. But it does not getting me to https://www.customvision.ai/projects, fails instead. No error messages in browser console.
I have created a resource for Cognitive Service in West-US2 region in Azure Portal. Do I need to create any more resources specific to Custom-vision? Please suggest.
I am using MSDN Azure Subscription for accessing Azure Portal.
Actually no need to create specific one. Try logging out and switching the subscription. you should be able to access it without a problem if you're under valid subscription

Track my costs on azure (FrontEnd-Pool, UnusedPool)

Im an azure newbe.
A while ago, I tested out some azure functionality. An app-service to test out azure functions and a webapp.
My (only) resource group is named MyRG (red line in attached picture).
A few weeks after I get the message that all my MSDN Pro-free-quota is used up. I can see that 99.9 of the resources was eaten up by
"FrontEnd_Pool_for_MyRG-appservice" and "Unused_Pool_for_MyRG-appservice"
When I look at my overview (below)
So... to my question:
can I find my costs in the overview, so I can remove/deactivate it? I cant test anything right until tomorrow, since its all deactivated
Bonus question)
Im using this as personal dev area.
What is the easiest way to deactivate a resource when Im not using it, I guess my mistake here was that I didnt deactivate something (expensive). Can I automate deactivation?
(This is the correct answer, in case I forget to log in here in 2 days and mark it)
Created an azure serivice ticket which went surprisingly smooth and fast.
Two calls and I got the answer. Sorry MS if I trashed your customer service, this time it was great :)
Everytime you create an "app service" (second row on my second screenshot), youll get the FrontEnd_Pool/Unused_Pool. I didnt use mine, so I removed it, and the problem should go away.
Thanks Feranto! Your help lead me to the answer!
So for the first question. Yes you can, to do this you should follow the next steps:
Go to the azure portal
Look for the subscription option
Select your subscription
There you can see an overview
Then you can click the graph that says "Costs by resource"
Here you will get a complete detail of your costs by the name of component, what type of component it is and finally to what resource group it belongs
Here you will be able to see every component by its original name, type or resource group name. Hope this works out for you!
And for the bonus question, if you are using PAAS services in azure it is not enough just to stop the service as it is in IAAS with vms. The only way to stop an app service from charging you is either deleting it or updating the App plan service to the Free tier. I would recommend the second one.
This is in the first faq in Microsoft's App Service website. :
Am I charged for apps while they are in stopped state?
Yes. Rates listed apply to apps in stopped state. Please delete apps
that are not in use or update tier to Free to avoid charges.
You can automate this process(either deleting or updating app service plan) trough the use of Azure Clients like the REST API, azure-cli or powershell.

How to get subscription details on azure portal.

I have recently updated my azure subscription and after that I am unable to see my content or resources on the Azure portal and unable to download the publish profile.
So please help me to find the latest subscription in the new azure portal.
From the top right end, you will have your profile. There you will be able to see the Active Directories available for you. Click on that and it will show a page containing info on "Directories+ Subscriptions". In case you are not able to see the respective subscription in any of those directories, it is requested to raise a Support ticket in the portal itself.
You should ask azure support to help you with this. They can see what you have registered in the portal and if something when wrong. One thing you can try is to open the portal in a private browser session to see if anything is cached or not.

How to share access to application insights data in the azure portal with other azure users

We have added Application Insights to our app, but I'm unable to make the application insights data availible to other developers (azure users). This is what I've tried:
Added a new Resource Group
Added a new Application Resource to it
Added a colleague that has another azure subscription, added as role Contributor to the resource group
Verified that the user is listed as inherited access in the application insight resource
Application insights data is showing up fine in my portal, problem is that my colluages are not able to locate the resource or the resource group in her azure portal. I've tried by sending a link, but the azure portal just says "loading"
Question is: Do I need to give some other access to allow for sharing application insights?
Thanks for any help

Since you mention "developer" I'm assuming you are both using separate MSDN subscriptions, and thats whats causing the issue. If this is the scenario that you are each using your own MSDN subscriptions when you log in, the other developer need to "switch" to your "directory" after they sign in, in order to see the things you gave them access to. Once the other dev is logged in to the azure portal, have them click their name in the upper right of the browser window, and in that dropdown there will likely be an additional "directory" that they can select which effectively switches them to see things that are inside your subscription+directory. Its this extra level of the "Directory" that is probably hiding your AI resource from him.
I experienced this problem first hand in the exact scenario you have described.
There is a lot of information about setting up access control for Application Insights here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-insights-resources-roles-access-control/
It looks like you've done most of those things, but you might want to double check just in case. Also, you shouldn't need to assign them "contributor", which would allow them to edit things, you should only need to give them "reader" access so they can see the data.

Published Web app to Azure, how do I browse to it, monitor it?

I have created my first app for azure. It's has an MVC3 web role which writes some data to table storage.
It also has a worker role that does some work behind the scenes to the same data.
It all works fine in the emulator.
I've uploaded it all to Azure as a staging deployment, the hosted service it is reports all roles as "ready". The health for all roles is "healthy", though the worker role appears to crash and goes to "degraded" and then resets itself (I assume this is what is happening).
So what now? I have found a "DNS Name" on my Web Role in the form "http://{guid}.cloudapp.net/"
Clicking on that link just gives me a network access error, http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ can't find it either.
What am I missing? Where can I see diagnostics similar to the emulator? I've set "Enable Diagnostics" to use my Azure storage account in each role. How do I get into the storage to see if it has traced anything? Can this be done through the Management Portal?
I've tried searching through MSDN, but I can't find a page that says "and then you click the DNS name link and your website will launch. I'm sure there is a lovely page like that but I can't find it.
thanks in advance!
In August 2011, the Windows Azure role templates were updated to work with the ASP.NET Universal Providers. As such, when you create a new project, the session state provider is backed by SQL Express by default. If you don't change this to SQL Azure or Cache (or disable session state), you'll run into issues.
I'm not sure this is exactly the issue you're running into, but it's a common one. See Nate Totten's blog post for more information about this (Nate calls out this issue a few pages down, under IMPORTANT NOTE).
You can access diagnostics data directly from Visual Studio Server Explorer.
Here you have all necessary information: Browsing Storage Resources with Server Explorer http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ff683677.aspx
Personally I use Azure Diagnostics Manager from Cerebrata http://www.cerebrata.com/products/AzureDiagnosticsManager/ that is easy and has a good dashboard
