local file (vmdk) conversion to Azure VM Fails

[rewsna]

Hi All,

I am trying to convert a vmdk file I have stored locally to an Azure VM. It keeps failing with the error "This request is not authorized to perform this operation". I had made it a contributor on both the Resource Group and the Subscription as well as a Storage Account and Blob contributor and this error is still happening. I have copied the logs below.
