Error creating new disk on Azure from snapshot

I am want to create a new disk from an image called "python3" on Azure to use in a VM scale set. Here is the relevant code:

$BaseDiskName = "python3_disk_20210614"
$SnapshotName = "python3"

$snapshot = Get-AzSnapshot -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName -SnapshotName $SnapshotName
$diskconfig = New-AzDiskConfig -Location $LocationName -SourceResourceId $snapshot.Id -CreateOption Copy
$newdisk = New-AzDisk $diskconfig -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName -DiskName $BaseDiskName

When display the properties of $diskconfig, this is what I get:

ResourceGroupName            :
ManagedBy                    :
ManagedByExtended            :
Sku                          :

NetworkAccessPolicy          :
DiskAccessId                 :
Tier                         :
BurstingEnabled              :

When running the last line of script, I get the following error:

*New-AzDisk : Resource python3 is not found. ErrorCode: NotFound ErrorMessage: Resource python3 is not found. ErrorTarget: StatusCode: 404 ReasonPhrase: Not Found OperationID : 37907fcd-b55b-4851-9c7e-43fdb187bbfe At V:\Modeling Software\computing\working\launch_VM - Copy.ps1:34 char:12

However, I can read and view the $diskconfig object which was loaded from the python3 image. How can python3 be not found when it was just used in the line above?

As mentioned in the comments, you were missing the parameter -Disk right before parsing the variable $diskconfig in your command. It should just be changed to:

$newdisk = New-AzDisk -Disk $diskconfig -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName -DiskName $BaseDiskName

Here's a reference to the Azure Documentation for the New-AzDisk cmdlet.
