Move operation support for resources

In this article
This article lists whether an Azure resource type supports the move operation. It also provides information about special conditions to consider when moving a resource.
Before starting your move operation, review the checklist to make sure you have satisfied prerequisites. Moving resources across Microsoft Entra tenants isn't supported.
Important
In most cases, a child resource can't be moved independently from its parent resource. Child resources have a resource type in the format of <resource-provider-namespace>/<parent-resource>/<child-resource>
. For example, Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces/queues
is a child resource of Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces
. When you move the parent resource, the child resource is automatically moved with it. If you don't see a child resource in this article, you can assume it is moved with the parent resource. If the parent resource doesn't support move, the child resource can't be moved.

Microsoft.HDInsight
Important
You can move HDInsight clusters to a new subscription or resource group. However, you can't move across subscriptions the networking resources linked to the HDInsight cluster (such as the virtual network, NIC, or load balancer). In addition, you can't move to a new resource group a NIC that is attached to a virtual machine for the cluster.
When moving an HDInsight cluster to a new subscription, first move other resources (like the storage account). Then, move the HDInsight cluster by itself.

Microsoft.Resources
Microsoft.SaaS
Important
Marketplace offerings that are implemented through the Microsoft.Saas resource provider support resource group and subscription moves. These offerings are represented by the resources
type below. For example, SendGrid is implemented through Microsoft.Saas and supports move operations. However, limitations defined in the move requirements checklist may limit the supported move scenarios. For example, you can't move the resources from a Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partner.
