"Create database permission can only be granted in the master database" when I'm logged into the master database in Azure Management portal

Question

I wanted to grand a CREATE DATABASE permission inside my SQL Azure Server to a specific user. I went to windows.azure.com, logged in, selected "Database" on the left pane, logged into the "master" database under the database admin account, selected "New Query" - a window with master: Query(Untitled1.sql) header appeared.

I typed

GRANT CREATE DATABASE TO THATUSERLOGIN;

and pressed execute and the query result is

CREATE DATABASE permission can only be granted in the master database.

What am I doing wrong? How do I do that right?

Answer 1

Try

USE master
GO
GRANT CREATE DATABASE TO THATUSERLOGIN

If that does not help then try to look at the Managing Databases and Logins in SQL Azure guide:
