    Hi NRAI Admin India

    Greetings!

    As we understand that, you are looking to move resources like a database, storage account, and app services from one tenant to another in Azure.

    We would like to inform you that, Azure does not support directly moving resources between different Microsoft Entra tenants. However, if you want to transfer environments, there are specific procedures using PowerShell that allow you to link an environment from one tenant to another. This essentially "moves" the environment but keeps it accessible and managed from the destination tenant.

    • For Databases and App Services: You might need to recreate the resources in the new tenant and migrate the data manually. For databases, tools like Azure Database Migration Service can help facilitate that.
    • For Storage Accounts: You can copy the blobs between storage accounts using Azure Storage Explorer or AzCopy.

    If you are looking at Windows Server or Dynamics 365 resources, you may need to follow different steps depending on the service you are working with.

    If you are interested in the specifics, you can check out the official documentation on tenant-to-tenant migrations.

    I hope, This response will address your query and helped you to overcome on your challenges.
