Ho to refresh credentials when creating a vm

Question

In the Learn Sandbox I had already created a VM, but it longer exists. I've tried to rebuild with this command:

az vm create  --resource-group "[sandbox resource group name]"  --name my-vm  --public-ip-sku Standard  --image Ubuntu2204  --admin-username azureuser  --generate-ssh-keys

But I get this message:

(AuthorizationFailed) The client 'pierluigi.cecchi.ext@bridgestone.eu' with object id '919663d2-7147-4eb6-ab7e-8b9657b8fa0f' does not have authorization to perform action 'Microsoft.Resources/subscriptions/resourcegroups/read' over scope '/subscriptions/1643dc90-966d-4432-a49c-157d83b413bf/resourcegroups/[sandbox resource group name]' or the scope is invalid. If access was recently granted, please refresh your credentials.

Code: AuthorizationFailed

Hoa can I refresh my credentials?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

The sandbox expires 1 hour after you activated it, and anything you created is automatically deleted. Please Activate a new sandbox, and before you try to run commands, make sure that the code in the exercise has the correct resource group name.

For example, instead of the code saying [sandbox resource group name] it should have something similar to learn-3294a2f5-b8ec-2def-ca62-49e23701bd77. If it doesn't have correct resource group name, please navigate back to previous Unit using dropdown at the top, allow page to load, then navigate back to exercise you are on, click verify, solve puzzle, and once it says Welcome to Azure Cloud Shell copy/paste the create vm command.
