Issues Identified

  1. Missing Policy Documentation
    The guide does not document the actual Azure subscription-level region policies:

    • Azure > Subscription > Regions
    • Azure > Subscription > Regions [Default]
  2. Incorrect Policy Reference
    The guide incorrectly states:

    The Resource Groups in Azure can be defined via the policy Azure > Account > Regions [Default], which is again a YAML list.

    This appears to be an error - the correct policy path should likely reference Subscription-level policies, not Account-level.

  3. Missing Policy Behavior Explanation
    The documentation should clarify the differences between:

    • Regions policy: Restricted to a hardcoded list with default being all explicit region names
    • Regions [Default] policy: Accepts wildcards with default value of *

Recommended Updates

  • Add documentation for Azure > Subscription > Regions policies
  • Correct the policy path reference for Resource Groups configuration
  • Explain the behavioral differences between Regions and Regions [Default] policies
  • Include guidance on when to use each policy type
  • Note that Approved Regions [Default] policy is needed for all providers
