Azure DevOps Release pipeline Azure subscription field is disabled

Question

I'm trying to create a release pipeline in my Azure DevOps account to deploy my site to a dev/test/prod environment. I Already set up the service connection and is working ok. When I am creating the pipeline and use for example the "Deploy Azure App Service" template the task option for "Azure Subscription" is disabled and I can't select my already configured connection.

I know everything is ok because I already tested the connection using a build yaml pipeline with the task "AzureRMWebAppDeployment@4" and the deploy process using the connection was successful.

Is there a way the option become available so I can use it in a release pipeline?

To enable the Azure subscription in the tasks, navigate to the Stage section and click on "Unlink All" in the Parameters option as shown below:

Next, proceed to the Azure App Service Deploy task and verify that the Azure subscription is now enabled.
