Creating a Azure DevOps as a Student

It sounds like you're encountering an issue with your Azure DevOps subscription as a student. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this problem:

1. Verify Subscription Status: Ensure that your Azure for Students subscription is active and that you have access to the Azure DevOps services. You can check this in the Azure portal under your subscriptions.
2. Check Eligibility: Make sure that your subscription meets the eligibility requirements for Azure DevOps. The Azure for Students offer should provide access to Azure DevOps, but it's important to confirm that your account is correctly set up.
3. Contact Support: If the error persists, consider reaching out to Azure support for assistance. They can provide specific guidance related to your account and the error code you are encountering.
4. Review Offer Terms: Sometimes, the issue might be related to the specific terms of the offer you have. You can check the terms and conditions for the Azure for Students offer to ensure that there are no restrictions affecting your access.
5. Try Creating a New Organization: If you haven't already, try creating a new Azure DevOps organization from the Azure portal to see if that resolves the issue.

If you follow these steps and still face issues, contacting support will likely be the best course of action to resolve the error code you are seeing.

Hello Robin Spiecker, It looks like you're encountering an error while trying to create an Azure DevOps project, and it seems related to your Azure subscription. The error message "Subscription is not valid. Reason code: InvalidOfferCode" can be quite frustrating.

Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

1. Check Subscription Type: Make sure that your Azure subscription is indeed an Azure for Students Starter or Azure for Students subscription. You can verify your subscription type from the Azure portal under "Cost Management + Billing" > "Subscriptions."
2. Valid Offer Code: The error typically indicates that there’s an issue with the offer code linked to your subscription. If you signed up using a GitHub account or a school email, double-check that your academic status was verified successfully.
3. Reverify Academic Status: Sometimes, you may need to reverify your academic status to ensure that your account is still recognized as a student. You can do this through the Azure for Students verification page.
4. Consider Upgrading: If issues persist, you may want to consider upgrading to a Pay-As-You-Go subscription. This can be done while keeping your current resources, and it will provide you with more stability without the offer restrictions.
5. Contact Support: If none of these steps work, I recommend reaching out to Azure for Education support for assistance with your specific situation.

If you still experience issues after this, could you provide more information on:

• The specific method you used to sign up for Azure (e.g., through your school email, GitHub, etc.)?
• Any attempts you've made to resolve the issue already?
• Whether you have tried accessing Azure through different web browsers or devices?
