Hi,

Is there a way to clone or duplicate another resource group.

example, RG-Development. clone or replicate to a new resource group RG-Staging.

From what I've google, it seems exporting the resources using the templates and then updating it is the only way?

Any information would be appreciated.

Cheers

Dave

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

    You’re right that directly cloning a resource group isn’t natively supported in Azure. Exporting resources using ARM (Azure Resource Manager) templates is a common and recommended way to clone or duplicate a resource group in Azure.
