I am using the Azure .NET SDK in C# to instantiate a VM of size NC4as_T4_v3. The problem that I am running into is that I need to define a VirtualMachineHardwareProfile object with a property VmSize of type VirtualMachineSizeType, but the enumeration VirtualMachineSizeType doesn't list the VM size I want.

Why? And can I define the Hardware Profile differently so as to instantiate this specific size?

A snippet of the code that I would like to use looks like this:

VirtualMachineData input = new VirtualMachineData(AzureLocation.EastUS)
{
    HardwareProfile = new VirtualMachineHardwareProfile()
    {
        VmSize = VirtualMachineSizeType.Standard_NC4as_T4_v3
    }
}

As per the Microsoft documentation, there is no Virtual Machine of size Standard_NC4as_T4_v3 In the VirtualMachineSizeType property/Object so it does not list the specified size of VM.

You can use the other fields/sizes to instantiate, which are mentioned in the above document.

In the end I have chose to create an ARM template using Bicep. Using the Azure SDK in my C# application to deploy the template to Azure.

This sample code gives an example of how to deploy an ARM template using Azure .NET SDK.

By using the Bicep/ARM I am able to define any and all properties of the VM that I want to use.
