Terraform Azurerm provider error:

Hi @olanrewaju.oladunjoye,

Thanks for reaching out about your Terraform issue. Without seeing your Terraform setup, it’s difficult to say what is going wrong. The error message does seem to point to a permission error, could you check if the given credentials have the correct permissions?

I did find a user with a similar issue here https://github.com/Azure/vagrant-azure/issues/127#issuecomment-226659944 and their workaround was to add the user at the subscription level rather than the resource group level.

I hope this helps point you in the right direction, please let me know if you have any other questions.
