New Azure Resource Alias for Subscriptions

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to create an Azure policy that allows certain subscriptions offer types, which are listed here:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/support/legal/offer-details/

The thought behind this is that we can separate for example on management group to only allow Visual studio / free trials etc. in one management group structure, Enterprise dev/test subscriptions in another etc.

This would allow us to prevent a subscription, which has the intention for a dev/test or personal sandbox environments to accidently have harder or less azure policies controlling it.

However, the Microsoft.Resource provider does not have any aliases for the Subscription resource type.

There's only aliases provided for the Microsoft.Subscription/SubscriptionDefinitions resource type.

Creating an azure policy to find any Subscriptions with this logic works:

{
	"field": "type",
	"equals": "microsoft.resources/subscriptions"
}

However, when trying to access properties for the resource, using for example "subscriptionPolicies.qoutaId" I get the following error message:
Using PowerShell and trying to list aliases for Subscriptions, It returns nothing of the kind.

@Sebastian Claesson Welcome to Microsoft Q & A Community Forum and thanks for detailed information. As you are already aware that there are no aliases available Microsoft.Resources/subscriptions. Support for requesting aliases is now handled by Azure Customer Support. Open a new Azure Customer Support ticket if you believe you need new aliases to be published.
