Hi Ben
Welcome to Q&A.
Azure credits are usually tied to a specific subscription, so splitting credit across the account is not possible, you can assign qoute but splitting is not possible. so instead of transferring credits directly to another account, you should ensure that both you and your colleague are working under the same Azure subscription. Here's how to manage that:
- Go to the Azure Portal and log in with your account.
- Navigate to Subscriptions and find the subscription that contains the credits.
- Ensure your colleague has access to this subscription by assigning a proper role (usually Contributor or Owner so he can create required resource).
Assign Roles to the Developer
To grant your developer access to the Azure resources and credits:
- In the Azure Portal, go to Subscriptions.
- Select the subscription where the credits are applied.
- Go to Access Control (IAM) from the side menu.
- Click on Add and select Add role assignment.
- Choose a role that suits your developer’s needs (e.g., Contributor or Reader for read-only access).
- Enter your colleague’s email address, select them, and click Save.
- Create a Budget for the Subscription
Budgets in Azure allow you to set spending limits and alerts, helping you monitor how much of the Azure credits are being used:
- Go to the Azure Portal.
- Navigate to Cost Management + Billing.
- In the left menu, click on Budgets.
- Choose the Subscription where your credits are applied.
- Click Add to create a new budget:
- Set the Name of the budget (e.g., "Developer Usage Limit").
- Choose a Time Period (monthly, quarterly, etc.) and set a Reset Period if needed.
- Set the Budget Amount (the desired limit for your developer's spending).
- Add Alerts to notify you or your colleague when the spending reaches certain thresholds (e.g., 50%, 75%, 100% of the budget).
