Moving Fabric between two subscriptions

Hi pmscorca 

 

I don't think it's possible to move directly MSFT Fabric capacity between Azure subscriptions. Fabric capacity is boundned to subscription where it was created. But you can assign your pld workspsces to new Fabric cappcity and also once you assigne this, then you can use deployement pipelines to promote content across your environments.

 

Few threads which will help you below mentioned. Pls read it.

Hi pmscorca  of course is possible...  I tested my self! Create a fabric capacity in one subscription and then move to antoher subscription WITHIN THE SAME TENANT. 

 

The steps are as follow: 

#01. From your current fabric capactity, click on Move > Move to another subscrption as shown below 

 

 

#02. Pick the new subscription and resource group, wait for the validation and click accept... Azure will do the rest. 

 

And NO, you don't have to move anything, BUT, I recommend you to PLAN ACCORDINGLY, that is: 

 

#01. Schedule when you will move the capacity and inform users to stand-by for any issues. 

#02. Stop the capacity and then, move to another subscription 

#03. Confirm the capacity on the new subscription and re-start 

#04. Verify that any workspaces attached work properly after the move. 

 

I don't think you will have any issues, but is better to be prepared for any contigencies  and give your self some time to troubleshoot  😉

 

With regards to "Is it possible to use deployment pipeline to deploy from a Fabric capacity in a dev/test subscription to another Fabric capacity in a prod subscription?" of course is also possible! Remember, a fabric capacity from azure perspective, IS JUST ANOTHER RESOURCE,  so, to use a deployment pipeline, understending deployment pipeline means AZURE DEVOPS DEPLOYMENT PIPELINE, you just need to wrap the powershell cmdlet Move-AzResource (Az.Resources) | Microsoft Learn in your pipeline, give permission and of you go! 

 

Hope this answer your questions! Kudos if you find this info. useful and mark as an answer if appropiate... best of lucks and ping us if any additional questions.
