Azure Service Principle Creation failing while configuring Harness Cost management report

Question

I am configuring Harness Cost Management report for my Azure Dev subscription and getting the below error while creating the service principle.

When using this permission, the backing application of the service principal being created must in the local tenant

Used below command to create Service Principle.

az ad sp create --id 0211763d-24fb-4d63-865d-xxxxxxxxx

Here is the Harness link I am following for this setup https://docs.harness.io/article/7idbmchsim-set-up-cost-visibility-for-azure

How can I resolve this issue?

After enabling CCM, it takes about 24 hours for the data to be available for viewing and analysis.

• Also make sure that you have the Application Administrator role assigned for your Azure AD and select the correct subscription where you need to create .

• As you are using az ad sp create --id 0211763d-24fb-4d63-865d-xxxxxxxxx instead of that use below cmdlts to create Service principle .

az ad sp create --id 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
