There may be something weird about your subscription. Could you try unregistering the namespace Microsoft.Resources and then re-registering it?

You can do so in the portal by following these steps: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/resource-providers-and-types#register-resource-provider-1

Or you can use the az CLI and type these commands

az provider unregister --namespace Microsoft.Resources
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.Resources

That was one of the first things I tried. I may just have something weird going on with my account since I had to open a ticket with Azure due to my account getting locked any time I sign in using the Azure CLI in VSCode.

Ah, alright. Let us know if the support team is able to help you out!

[JaclynFox]

Well, so far they've been of no help. So when I said I already unregistered and reregistered my microsoft.resources subscription I must have just clicked Reregister because when I try to unregister I get the following error:

The resource namespace 'microsoft.resources' is invalid

I'm encountering the same problem and error messages on a fresh subscription from last week.

The JSON in the resource provider details is still empty after I re-register the provider:

{
  "resourceType": "",
  "locations": [],
  "defaultApiVersion": "",
  "apiProfiles": [],
  "capabilities": "",
  "apiVersions": [],
  "zoneMappings": []
}

I'm guessing it should be populated with some default values?

I don't know if it's relevant, but I can create resource groups with the Azure CLI. This works: az group create -n az-rg-test -l westus.

Thanks for this tidbit. That's interesting-- I wonder if the SDK that we are using is outdated.

This works for me now! I don't remember doing anything, but the Microsoft.Resources provider is no longer empty and I can create resources from vscode.
