Is Australia East still available as a location for Cosmos DB

Have an existing Cosmos DB in Australia East.

I need to create a new one so that we can make use of the free data tier however Australia East is not appearing in the Location dropdown.

Is Cosmos DB no longer available in Australia East. All the documentation suggests that it is.

Also experiencing this, Australia Southeast and Australia Central both show but not Australia East.

Did you get anywhere with this?

Had to reach out to Azure Support via Twitter - apparently Australia East is in high demand at the moment so Microsoft are not allowing new resources to be created!
Would have saved a lot of time if there was a message in the portal to let customers know that.

I was able to get a one-time free support to request the additional resource. It took about a week for it to be granted (which was too late for us!).

Your best bet is to contact Azure Support on Twitter like I did.

It looks like the regions is not available for your subscription. You can follow this link for creating support ticket for getting it enabled. Do share the ticket number so we can get traction for the same.

Everything in that subscription is based in Australia East, including the resource group and existing Cosmos DB, so I can't understand why I can't create a new Cosmos DB in Australia East in that same subscription..
