Cannot publish to Sovereign Cloud

I was reading this article where it discusses some of the different kinds of Clouds that Azure supports. For example:

  • Public Cloud
  • China Cloud
  • German Cloud
  • US Government Cloud

There may be more, but I was working on publishing an Azure App Service to the German Cloud and I was not finding my subscription in the dropdown of the Publish wizard, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1, cannot publish to the German Cloud

So I downloaded the German Cloud Azure App Service Publish Profile manually as shown in Figure 2, from the portal.

Then I Imported the downloaded *.PublishSettings file, as shown in Figure 3 and my App Service Web App published just fine.

This is only a work around until the flow works the same for all instances of the cloud.
