az storage account create command does not find subscription from login

[psingler-planb]

Describe the bug

I am doing the AZ204 learn training and logged in azure using the cli from vscode.
az login is successfull and subscription is listed and I choose it. Resourcegroup mentions is as well present.
However, the az storage create command indicates an error that subscription cannot be found. This seems to be buggy or the training descriptions is wrong.

@psingler-planb hi can you run az storage account create --resource-group az204-blob-rg --name weusto-az204 --location westeurope --sku Standard_LRS --debug to show the full debug log? Thanks.

The issue was actually that the storage was not registered as resource provider under the subscription. The learning path documentation did not indicate that. All fine now. Thx for your help.
