Move Azure resource group to another subscription

If you would like to move all the Azure resources from an a source resource group to a target another resource group in another subscription, you can do that by the portal or the Azure CLI. See Azure CLI code below

az login --service-principal --username 'servicePrincipalGuid' --password 'Secret' --tenant 'tenantGuid'

az account set --subscription 'subscriptionGuid' #old subscription

az resource move --destination-group 'destinationResourceGroupName' --destination-subscription-id 'destinationSubscriptionGuid' --ids $(az resource list --resource-group 'sourceResourceGroupName' --query "[].id" -o tsv)

If you get the error below, it is because there are some dependencies with other Azure resources in another resource group or because you need to move them first back to the original resource group. See below how to troubleshoot
