I'm setting up client's purview governance solution, i'm wondering is there any limits for secondary accounts? how many secondary can be connected to primary accounts, in case client wants to expend solution to multiple subscriptions (spokes), will they be able to connect to primary account all of them? or they would need multiple primary for each secondary?

what's cost associated with this?

    Hello @Raja Khan

    Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

    According to this MS documentation: Merge account to domain

    In Microsoft Purview, a primary account can only have a maximum of five domains. Therefore, if you are considering connecting multiple secondary accounts to a primary account, you need to ensure that the total number of domains does not exceed this limit.

    User's image Regarding the connection of multiple subscriptions (spokes) to a primary account, you would be able to connect secondary accounts to the primary account as long as you stay within the domain limit. If your client requires more than five secondary accounts, they would need to set up additional primary accounts.

    You can find detailed information about the cost associated with the enterprise version of Microsoft Purview, which was announced on November 1, 2024, in the official Microsoft documentation: Introducing Microsoft Purview Data Governance GA pricing

    For more details refer: Merge account to domain
