Sign in to the Azure Portal.

If you’re using Azure Gov, sign in to the Azure Gov Portal.
At the top of the Azure Portal, select the Cloud Shell icon.

In the Cloud Shell, run the following Azure CLI command. This will retrieve the registration status for all the Resource providers needed during the exercises.

 az provider show --namespace 'Microsoft.Network' -o table;
 az provider show --namespace 'Microsoft.Sql' -o table;
 az provider show --namespace 'Microsoft.Storage' -o table;
 az provider show --namespace 'Microsoft.Compute' -o table;
 az provider show --namespace 'Microsoft.DataMigration' -o table

Example output:

Namespace          RegistrationPolicy    RegistrationState
-----------------  --------------------  -------------------
Microsoft.Network  RegistrationRequired  Registered
Namespace      RegistrationPolicy    RegistrationState
-------------  --------------------  -------------------
Microsoft.Sql  RegistrationRequired  Registered
Namespace          RegistrationPolicy    RegistrationState
-----------------  --------------------  -------------------
Microsoft.Storage  RegistrationRequired  Registered
Namespace          RegistrationPolicy    RegistrationState
-----------------  --------------------  -------------------
Microsoft.Compute  RegistrationRequired  Registered
Namespace                RegistrationPolicy    RegistrationState
-----------------------  --------------------  -------------------
Microsoft.DataMigration  RegistrationRequired  NotRegistered

Take note of all the Namespace values that have a RegistrationState of NotRegistered.
For each of the values retrieved previously, run the following Azure CLI command. This will register the specified Resource provider.
```
 az provider register --namespace 'PROVIDER' --wait
```
Example command to register the Microsoft.DataMigration provider:
```
az provider register --namespace 'Microsoft.DataMigration' --wait
```
Copy the id and userPrincipalName values from the returned output from the Azure CLI command and save it for use later.
The ARM Template will use this user Id and Name as the Administrator for the Azure SQL Managed Instance resource. This user must be an Entra ID user and cannot be a personal Microsoft Account. If you need to, look up an alternative user to use for this, then run the following command instead:
```
az ad user show --id <azure-login>
```
Replace the <azure-login> placeholder with the user’s email login. Ex: user@domain.onmicrosoft.com
