For example:

      • You create Resource Group 1 and include MyResource group.

      • When you create Resource Group 2, you don't see MyResource group in the list. You do see Resource Group 1, which you can add to Resource Group 2.

      If you select individual scan projects, selecting resource groups is not allowed.
