Cross tenant access

I am currently working on a task where a centralized tenant needs access to a subscription in another tenant. To facilitate this, I am using service principals. Service principals are present in all tenants involved.

The challenge I am facing is granting the service principal in the centralized tenant access to the subscription in the other tenant. I have already enabled multi-tenant settings on the service principal. However, I believe there might be additional steps required to establish the necessary links or permissions between the tenants.

Could someone please guide me on how to properly set up this cross-tenant access?

Thank you in advance!

    Hi @Merin Mary
    Thank you for reaching us!

    If I understand correctly, you have a subscription in Tenant A and now I would like to access the Tenant A subscription from tenant B if this is the case it is not possible to access a subscription in Tenant A from Tenant B. Subscriptions are tied to their respective tenants, and you cannot directly access a subscription in Tenant A from Tenant B.
    If my understanding is incorrect, please explain in detailed what you are trying to achieve and what steps you have taken.
