HI,

Sorry for the confusion but that is not what i meant.

The Microsoft Learn material for DP203 has practical exercises. To complete the practical exercises, you need a Microsoft Azure subscription. Before i sign up as pay-as-you-go on the Azure Portal, I want to know the approximate cost of the resources used.

The 'free' 200 dollar ran out before I could use it.

This is an example of one of the exercises that require a subscription.

I look forward with interest to your reply.

Hi Leila,

Thank you for getting back to me. I noticed that you marked my previous response as not helpful, and I apologize if this did not resolve your query.

Using the additional details you have provided, these helped me to check further information regarding your concern.

Since the free $200 Azure credit can only be used within 30 days, I know how you wanted to utilize the pay-as-you-go option for the exercises that need a Microsoft Azure Subscription. With this, I'm afraid that we don't have the approximate cost as it will still depend on the usage of the resources that you will use.

Meanwhile, you may also consider checking the Pricing Calculator | Microsoft Azure that might help you to have an approximate pricing and calculate the estimated hourly or monthly costs for using Azure products or services.

In addition, I will also convert this thread to Discussion so that other candidates who completed the exercises can respond and share their feedback of how much the resources cost them.

Thank you for understanding in regard to this matter.

Warm regards,
