Not able to configure Cross tenant object replication in Azure

Shubhangi Shukla 25

While trying to configure Cross tenant object replication from my azure storage account to a storage account in external tenant using 'create replication rules', not getting the option to provide subscription name and storage account name of the external tenant. How to set up object replication if the destination storage account is in different tenant?

Tried Uploading a json file in the format:
{

"properties": {

"policyId": "default",

"sourceAccount": "/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/resourceGroups/<resource-group>/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/<storage-account>",

"destinationAccount": "/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/resourceGroups/<resource-group>/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/<storage-account>",

"rules": [

  {

    "ruleId": "",

    "sourceContainer": "<source-container>",

    "destinationContainer": "<destination-container>"

  }

]

}

}
But when I'm uploading the json, it does not get uploaded and pops and error "Policy and rule IDs must be specified"

Hi Shubhangi Shukla,
Please follow the below steps:

Create Replication Policy Using JSON:

Since the Azure portal does not provide an option to directly select a subscription and storage account from an external tenant, you need to use a JSON file to define the replication policy.

Create a JSON File: Define the replication policy in a local JSON file. Set the policyId field to default so that Azure Storage will define the policy ID.

Upload JSON File: Navigate to the Object replication settings for the destination account in the Azure portal. Select Upload replication rules and upload the JSON file to create the replication policy to Create JSON File:

Verify Configuration:

Check the replication status of the blobs to ensure that the policy is working as expected.

For more detailed steps, you can refer to the official Azure documentation

HI Shubhangi Shukla,
Based on the error message, The error is caused by missing values for ruleId and possibly for policyId. These two fields must be specified for the JSON to work. Provide a correct translation of your JSON with placeholders,

*Replace "ruleId": "your-rule-id", // with your actual rule ID and
"policyId": "your-policy-id", // Replace with your actual policy ID

Be sure to replace <policy-id> and <rule-id> with real values,

Please let us know if you have any further queries. I’m happy to assist you further.
