- Marketplace deployment can fail early if a required provider is not registered, even when the offer itself is valid.
- Some subscriptions, especially newly upgraded or restricted subscriptions, may also need enough quota and regional availability for the selected plan and related resources.
- Customer data stays in the customer's Azure environment by design. Surf Viewer is customer-hosted.
Post-Deployment Steps
Open the Surf Viewer application root URL for the deployment:
https://your-function-app-name.azurewebsites.net/
If setup is incomplete, Surf Viewer will automatically take you to administrator bootstrap. After setup is complete, the same URL opens the viewer.
