I am using Azure SDK for python to create resource using python script.After giving the required credentials like CLIENT_ID,TENANT_ID,CLIENT_SECRET,SUBSCRIPTION_ID..It throws a error message like

"msrestazure.azure_exceptions.CloudError: Azure Error: AuthorizationFailed Message: The client 'CLIENT_ID' with object id 'OBJECT_ID' does not have authorization to perform action 'Microsoft.Resources/subscriptions/resourcegroups/read' over scope ''."

(I am using azure in free trial type of subscription)

Make sure you assign the right role for the service principal to manage the resources necessary. You can go to any subscription/resource group/resource -> Access control (IAM) to do this. – juunas
Yep, as @juunas said, it should be caused you didn't assign role to your sp via IAM. Go to azure portal > subscription > IAM > Add > choose your sp and assign one necessary role to it. Also please give us feedback if you have any process or questions on it. – Wayne Yang

There needs to be a service principal(SP) associated with the application. Also, to assign a role to SP you need to be an 'owner' or the Azure portal does not show you that option if you are a 'contributor' in UI.
